Item Among equals: Strengthening community-based knowledge mobilization through international cooperation(2005) Hall, Budd LThis paper details the formation of a collaboration between the University of Victoria and the Society for Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA). Dr. Budd Hall describes how shared commitments to participatory research, community engagement, and knowledge mobilization brought the two organizations together and what that collaboration looked like in practice, from joint course development and student exchanges to co-organized research conferences. The paper outlines the strengths and priorities of each organization and highlights collaborative initiatives in continuing education, participatory research, community–university partnerships, curriculum development, and international exchanges. The paper also recognizes key principles that have supported the collaboration, including trust, reciprocity, flexibility, and respect for diverse forms of knowledge and experience. The paper provides an example of how institutions from different contexts can work together to build research capacity, strengthen knowledge mobilization, and support socially engaged learning at local and international levels.Item Contemporary conversations and movements in adult education: From knowledge democracy to the aesthetic turn(2022) Hall, Budd L; Clover, Darlene EWhat does it mean to contribute meaningfully to the evolving field of adult education today? In this article, Dr. Budd Hall and Darlene E Clover examine and engage with several contemporary conversations and movements in which they have been active participants, describing our respective contributions to the field of adult education. Hall focuses on the interconnected frameworks of knowledge democracy, community-based participatory research, and social movement learning. Clover advances new understandings at the intersection of aesthetics and gender justice, drawing upon her research and teaching work across both areas. Together, their reflections demonstrate the diverse ways in which adult education can contribute to social transformation and democratic engagement. Through a reflective examination of their scholarly and practical contributions, the article explores how adult educators can engage with questions of knowledge, justice, and social change. .Item A Northeastern Brazilian: Memories of Paulo Freire(2018) Hall, Budd LHow do personal memories illuminate the enduring legacy of one of the twentieth century's most influential pedagogical thinkers? This paper presents Dr. Budd Hall's reflection on his experience with Paulo Freire and the influence of Freire’s pedagogical ideas on adult education and social transformation. Hall’s engagement with Freire’s work began in 1970 while working at the University of Dar es Salaam, when Tanzania was developing a nationwide adult literacy campaign under President Nyerere. The paper highlights his commitment to social transformation through education, emphasizing the influence of Marxist and humanistic psychology. He created a discourse, a set of words and concepts that fit our world so well. ‘Banking education,' 'conscientization,' ‘problem-based education,' ‘thematic investigation,' and ‘codifications’ shaped educational thought and practice. The paper also traces a longer relationship with Freire through the International Council for Adult Education and various international gatherings over the following decades. The memoir concludes with an original poem, “Surf on Paulino,” written on the first anniversary of Freire’s death, celebrating his intellectual legacy, his warmth, and his place in the tradition of Brazilian mysticism.Item Mobilizing community and academic knowledge for transformative change: The story of the UNESCO Chair in community based research and social responsibility in higher education(UNESCO Chair, 2017) Hall, Budd L; Tandon, Rajesh
