Item Item Community based participatory research & sustainable development goals(2017) Hall, Budd L; Tandon, RajeshItem Majority-world foundations of community-based research(Palgrave Macmillan, 2014) Hall, Budd L; Tandon, RajeshThis chapter explores the majority-world foundations of community-based research with a particular focus on the rise of participatory research (PR) in social movement and civil society settings in the global South and its subsequent spread to the North, eventually finding its way into universities. The authors were involved in both the creation of the discourse and the spread of the initial ideas through the International Participatory Research Network. In the 1970s, Rajesh Tandon came to his initial thinking about participatory research while working with tribal peoples in Rajasthan, India. Budd Hall was working at the Institute for Adult Education in Tanzania during those days. The chapter challenges the Eurocentric bias of much contemporary scholarship in the field of community-based research (CBR). It closes with three challenges to contemporary scholars.Item From action research to knowledge democracy Cartagena 1977-2017(Colombian Journal of Sociology (RCS), 2018) Hall, Budd L; Tandon, RajeshItem Knowledge, democracy and action: Community university research partnerships in global perspectives(2012) Hall, Budd L; Tandon, Rajesh; Steinhaus, Norbert; Ching Mey, Susie SeeItem Towards a new architecture of knowledge: The creation of an office of community-based research at the University of Victoria(2007) Hall, Budd L; Lydon, Maeve; Trapero, JoaquinItem Shaping socially responsible higher education through knowledge democratisation(2023) Hall, Budd LBeginning with early influences, Budd Hall shares some background on his 60+ years of engagement with the world of higher education. Sharing a world view deeply critical of the contemporary domination of global capitalism, he suggests that knowledge activism, knowledge democracy, and questions of knowledge equity, are key to the radical reinvention of higher education that is needed. He goes on to outline principles of socially responsible higher education, closing with a message of the urgency of our times.Item Contemporary conversations and movements in adult education: From knowledge democracy to the aesthetic turn(2022) Hall, Budd L; Clover, Darlene EIn this article, two key figures in the history of the International Council for Adult Education, one being the Secretary General, discuss some of the contemporary conversations and movements that we have been a part of and how we are contributing through these areas to the field of adult education. Budd focusses on knowledge democracy, community-based participatory research and social movement learning. Darlene shares new conceptualisations of aesthetics and gender justice and her research and pedagogical work in these two areas.Item Beyond partnerships: Embracing complexity to understand and improve research collaboration for global development(2021) Fransman, Jude; Hall, Budd L; Hayman, Rachel; Narayanan, Pradeep; Newman, Kate; Tandon, RajeshWhile there is a burgeoning literature on the benefits of research collaboration for development, it tends to promote the idea of the ‘partnership’ as a bounded site in which interventions to improve collaborative practice can be made. This article draws on complexity theory and systems thinking to argue that such an assumption is problematic, divorcing collaboration from wider systems of research and practice. Instead, a systemic framework for understanding and evaluating collaboration is proposed. This framework is used to reflect on a set of principles for fair and equitable research collaboration that emerged from a programme of strategic research and capacity strengthening conducted by the Rethinking Research Collaborative (RRC) for the United Kingdom (UK)’s primary research funder: UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). The article concludes that a systemic conceptualisation of collaboration is more responsive than a ‘partnership’ approach, both to the principles of fairness and equity and also to uncertain futures.
