A Perth tertiary hospital's ear, nose and throat department plans a programme to reduce chronic suppurative otitis media in a remote Aboriginal community 1500 km away. It has funding, a visiting surgical team, an audiologist and translated written material, and proposes to start in six months. The community has an Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation, an elders' group and a school health service. Which one of the following features would best show that this is a partnership with the community rather than a service delivered to it?
