It is increasingly recognised that instead of relying on top-down commands or leaving individuals to their own devices, communities should be given a role in tackling challenges exacerbated by global crises. Written by a team of leading experts with in-depth knowledge and on-the-ground experience, this book sets out why and how people’s lives can be positively transformed through diverse forms of community involvement. This book critically explores examples from around the world of how communities can become more collaborative and resilient in dealing with the problems they face, and provides an invaluable guide to what a holistic policy agenda for community-based transformation should encompass.
“If we want to change the world, we should start at the community level and build upward. During two pandemic years, I’ve found myself fibrillating over how to help. Tam’s book helped defibrillate me and put me back on the path towards striving for meaningful change.” Technical Communication
