Centering on timely local and global issues, this volume takes a multidisciplinary approach to explore the rich complexity of community development through an adult education lens. A wide range of experts unpack the nuances of community development within three focal areas: public pedagogy, people and social justice, and local and global perspectives. Readers will gain a robust understanding of the pillars of community development and community assets (e.g., physical, human, social, financial, environmental, political, and cultural capitals) and their importance in affecting positive change. Each chapter provides recommendations for practice, ideas for future research, and reflection questions, making this text an engaging, user-friendly resource that will provide lasting support and direction for students and scholars alike.
