At the heart of the movement toward health care for all by the year 2000 lies an important central theme: community self-empowerment. When a community is able to choose strategies for health based on appropriate information, local resources, accessible support and institutional, organizational and social approval, it can be described as empowered. Such a community's health care is then considered to be self-determined, an enviable state of affairs, and one which is in accord with the goals of primary health care.
到2000年实现全民医疗保健这一运动的核心是一个重要的中心主题：社区自我赋权。当一个社区能够基于适当的信息、当地资源、可获得的支持以及机构、组织和社会的认可来选择健康策略时，就可以说它获得了赋权。这样一个社区的医疗保健就被认为是自主决定的，这是一种令人羡慕的状况，并且符合初级卫生保健的目标。
