    Perspectives on community practices: Living and learning in community
    (Znanstvena založba Filozofske fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani, 2015) Krašovec, Sabina Jelenc; Štefanc, Damijan; Hall, Budd L; Tandon, Rajesh; Tremblay, Crystal; Singh, Wafa
    This book presents the findings of the 2015 European Society for Research on the Education of Adults conference and brings together a rich collection of research that explores how communities learn, organise, resist and transform across varied contexts. It covers themes such as adult learning and wellbeing, intergenerational spaces of experience, feminist work in public museums, learning cities and regions, community resilience, applied theatre and transformative learning, and the co-construction of knowledge in community–university partnerships. Contributions such as Adult Learning and Wellbeing: Between Body Politics and the Body Politic, Community Building as Forum and Arena, and Challenges in the Co-Construction of Knowledge foreground tensions between policy, participation, power and everyday practice. The strength of this book lies in its plurality. It holds together critical, empirical and practice-based insights, making it an important resource for understanding community learning in complex and changing times.

    Strengthening Community University Research Partnerships: Global Perspectives
    (University of Victoria and PRIA, 2015-08) Hall, Budd L; Tandon, Rajesh; Tremblay, Crystal
    Universities everywhere are being called to engage more closely with the communities around them. This book looks at what that actually means in practice. Bringing together perspectives from fifty countries and case studies from twelve, it explores how reciprocal research partnerships are built, supported, and sustained. The chapters show both the opportunities and the tensions of collaboration, and suggest how such partnerships can strengthen knowledge democracy while reshaping the role of higher education. By tracing patterns across regions, the book highlights the policies and structures that make engagement possible, while also pointing to the deeper cultural shifts that such collaboration demands.
