mutual assistance

Mutual assistance is a cooperative arrangement where individuals or groups agree to support each other, especially during times of need. For example, if a community faces a natural disaster, residents might share resources, skills, or help with cleanup. This reciprocal support strengthens bonds and ensures that everyone can get help when required. It’s based on trust that everyone will contribute and benefit, fostering a sense of solidarity and collective resilience. Mutual assistance emphasizes working together to overcome challenges, making each participant more capable and the community more united.
