Of equal importance to international academic and community audiences interested in learning partnerships, this book presents the latest thinking and innovations in development and professional practice in student-community engagement - an area of increasing interest and value to higher education institutions and communities alike. Through this uniquely focused text, readers will gain a better understanding of the range and scope of practice for student-community engagement within the current social, economic, and political context, supported by historical background and definitions of engagement. Practical guidelines on how to approach this work are provided, illustrated in a lively way by a variety of case study examples of learning gained from a range of different projects, co-written by students and their community partners.
