The knowledge and expertise of communities in motivating and engaging others in learning – often using personal and practical examples of overcoming earlier negative learning experiences – demonstrate how traditional community-led approaches continue to achieve impact in adult and community learning today. This inspiring guide shows the many innovative and imaginative ways that adult and community learning practitioners are engaging with their communities in planning, providing, and evaluating learning. It sets out the reasons and rationale for consultation and offers a step-by step approach to developing models that match local priorities and needs. This guide offers inspirations and examples of communities playing a crucial role, both in increasing demand and in shaping policy about local provision for adults.
