Executive Summary
Community development is hard to define and understand. In Australia, the growth in migration leading to a rise in multiculturalism has led to the importance of respect and tolerance. The purpose of this paper is to understand migration and refugee problems in Australia and propose a community development plan to address the issue. In this regard, the theories of community development and their principles have been taken in to consideration. Furthermore, a particular community in the region of Australia has been looked in to which is the immigrants and refugees faced with family and domestic violence living in the metropolitan and regional Australia. The manner in which this community can be developed so as to reduce the extent of the violation of their rights, have been analyzed within this paper.

Introduction
The aspect of community development is guided by certain theories such as that of Social Justice……… Theory and (Ecolgical) Diversity Theory. A theory helps to provide a formal and organized structure to the different observations which are made in a particular field of study. (Edwards & Jones, XXXXXXXXXXWhile we can argue some subu
s such as Mi
abooka in Perth has a high population of immigrant and refugees affected by domestic violence, there is a need for community development as it signifies the move towards growth and modernization. (IFE P.39Thus, for any individual to maintain a decent standard of living in the society, it is essential for them to work for their survival and engage with the other people of the community so that they can acquire all those services and commodities which would help to further their existence in the society (Gilchrist & Taylor, XXXXXXXXXXThe purpose of this paper is to understand the factor of community development. In this regard, the theories of community development and their principles have been taken in to consideration. Furthermore, a particular community in the region of Australia has been looked in to which is the immigrants and the women refugees living in the metropolitan and regional Australia. The manner in which this community can be developed so as to reduce the extent of the violation of their rights, have been analyzed within this paper.

Meaning of community development and community scanning Comment by kelly lo
aine: Refer to matix
Community refers to a group of people living together and sharing the same cultural heritage. Development is seen to be a process which leads to the improvement of the lives of such people living in the community. The aspect of community development is seen to be both a process as well as an outcome. The term ‘community development is a difficult term to define though indicates the improvement of the living standard of the people who are living within the identified community (Mtika & Kistler, XXXXXXXXXXThis improvement is in the field of their social standing, their cultural integration and the peaceful and harmonious relationship that they share with each other. In other words, community development seeks to integrate the lives of the people with one another on the understanding that each and every individual of the society is in need of help and support. The isolationist aspect of the people has been sought to be mitigated with the introduction of the social contract theory (McEwan et al., 2017).
In the contemporary societal order, this aspect of community development becomes all the more significant since there is the rise of multiculturalism in the community. This structure of community and development is important for the women migrant and refugees entering Australia who face family and domestic violence as they are in a vulnerable group. Their lives need to be improved upon and they need to acquire a state of self-confidence………….,
Theory of community development Comment by kelly lo
aine: Refer to matrix as this heading needs to be Community Development Approach
Theories help to explain why a particular incident occu
ed and how it occu
ed in the first place (Saepudin & Mulyono, XXXXXXXXXXSuch theories also help to outline the principles which are used to justify for a particular action or account for an activity.
In this context, it needs to be noted that even the aspect of community development has theories attached to it. Among the host of theories present in the field of community development, one of the most significant theory is that of the Social Justice Theory (Shaw & Mayo, XXXXXXXXXXThe Social Justice Theory outlines that all the individuals of a particular community would have an equal and fair opportunity to be heard, especially in the context of those minorities who are in the fear that they might be ignored. The purpose of the social justice theory is to analyze and examine how the different social categories like that of class, gender, age, ethnicity and disability may intersect with one another and create a disadvantageous field for the minorities living in that community (Aquino, Lück & Schänzel, XXXXXXXXXXThe Social Justice Theory has been applied in the understanding of the issues faced by the women migrant and refugees entering Australia who face family and domestic violence. Furthermore, the Ecological ………..Diversity Theory has also been looked in to so as to understand the fact that all individuals are essentially different from each other and hence, they have their own personal needs and aspirations.
The Social Justice theory mentioned four levels of disadvantage. The first is that of the individual disadvantage. This occurs when the problem is more person centric in the sense that it looks in to the hardships faced by the individuals, their illness or depressions and anxiety (Westoby, 2016).
The second disadvantage is that of institutional disadvantage. This includes the crises caused by the institutions which were primarily established to reform the social issues (Bhuyan, Bejan & Jeyapal, XXXXXXXXXXFor example, it includes the schools, prisons and the welfare organizations.
The third level identified is that of structural disadvantage. It considers the social issues to be stemming out of the inadequacies of the
