DEFINITION OF DEVELOPMENT COMMUNICATION


In 1971 Nora C. Quebral defined DEVCOMM as the art and science of human communication applied to the speedy transformation of a country and the mass of its people from poverty to a dynamic state of economic growth that makes possible greater social equality and the larger fulfillment of the human potential.
DEVELOPMENT COMMUNICATION - the art and science of human communication linked to a society's planned transformation from a state of poverty to one of dynamic socio-economic growth that makes for greater equity and the larger unfolding of individual potential. (Quebral,2001)

GUNITA: Pangungulila

nainip ako sa maraming bagay. sinubukan kong magkulong sa apat na sulok ng aking maliit na kwarto. duon ako dinalaw ng kalungkutan. kalungkutan na bumabalot sa aking katauhan. simpleng tao lang ako, masaya na ko kung makatulog ako ng mahimbing sa loob ng isang lingo. tinanggap ko na hindi ko kayang ihimlay ang aking diwa sa malambot na espasyo para dito.

lumabas ako sa kwadro, lumipat sa isang di pangkaraniwang lugar.

apat kami. tanaw sa di kalayuan ang magulong pag-iisip ng karamihan. napaisip ako, duon yata nagtitipon ang mga maliligalig na katauhan. halo-halo ang emosyon, tila isang reyalidad ang nagbabadya. hindi lang ako ang nababalisa. halos matunaw ang aking kalooban sa senaryo na aking nasaksihan.
