Adults Learning for Development
This book bridges the worlds of adult education and development. It argues that development workers and adult educators have a great deal to learn from each other, especially at a time when developmental issues have come to dominate political discussions in the West.

Education Behind Bars: International Comparisons
Prisons are, by definition, closed, and the sense of confinement can affect staff as much as inmates. Not only is the work of educators in prisons at risk of being at best ignored, at worst disparaged, by the public at large; but also its closed institutional nature has often resulted in the separation from the mainstream of adult education. In reality many of the initiatives highlighted in recent years – the development of basic skills, the urgency of vocational education and its linkage to an element of social education, special programmes for the educationally disadvantaged, for example – have been the bread-and-butter of prison educators for many years. This sector has a wealth of expertise to offer a defi… More >>
