Description
Action Research for Sustainability: A New Approach to Social Learning. This book explores how action research can contribute to sustainability by fostering social learning between citizens and scientists. It argues that science should play a role in sustaining sustainability, rather than just supporting it. The author presents an empirical analysis of an action research programme aimed at increasing local citizens' involvement in urban sustainability research. The study reveals how action research can create spaces for addressing unsustainability and generating new ideas for more sustainable futures.
