| Description | An alternative approach for grassroots development-oriented adult education in the West is to look to social movements as adult education, and to ask how the educative dimensions of learning-through-action in the Women's, Peace, Green and other areas of community purpose and action may be enhanced. It is instructive to review these grassroots, development-oriented, case studies of adult nonformal education with these trends in mind. Nongovernmental organisations committed to adult education for development commonly experience delicate and strained relations with government, especially where their language runs to people's movements, conscientisation, organisation and so on. Recognising and valuing local indigenous knowledge and experience, listening to the community and following its lead, as in the choice of local leaders for animator training, proves essential. Common to most of these accounts is a sense of commitment, often of dedication and self-sacrifice, on the part of the project workers. Most of the studies reveal a sharp strategic sense and a capacity for strategic planning. Book Name: Grassroots Approaches to Combatting Poverty through Adult Education |
