 cover of "Community Education and Neighbourhood Renewal"

We’ve all heard about the current government strategies for neighbourhood renewal, but what do they mean? How will they impact on community education? And what does community education have to offer learners in deprived communities and run-down neighbourhoods?

This guide cuts to the heart of what community education and neighbourhood renewal are all about. It points out the opportunities, challenges and dilemmas that are raised by government policy, and offers practical advice to allow for sustainable initiatives, active citizenship and social change.

Based on over 25 years experience of working in community education in poor neighbourhoods, Jane Thompson offers insight, advice, examples and resources aimed at community education practitioners who want to make a difference.

This is an essential guide for anyone involved in neighbourhood renewal strategies and interested in the part that community education has to play.
