We are happy to announce the continuation of our collaboration with the Centre for Lifelong Learning at the University of Strathclyde through a joint seminar to be given by Professor Brian Findsen of the University of Waikato, New Zealand (and a weel-kent face in Glasgow, being former Head of DACE at the University of Glasgow). Brian's seminar will take place on the 22nd of August and full details of location and time are given on the attached flyer.

PLEASE NOTE: to book a place reply to the contact given on the flyer NOT to CR&DALL.

Please find attached the second ESREA newsletter for 2014. The end of the semester is coming but it is a hectic time in ESREA since three out of eleven networks have their research conferences this month. I have seen the programmes and it seems like there will be a lot of interesting discussions concerning policy, global and local issues in adult learning and development as well as transformative learning.

We are happy to inform you that the finally revised E-Book of the triennial ESREA research conference 2013 - Changing Configurations of Adult Education in Transitional Times - is now available here on CR&DALL (see below) as well as online at this link.

A new journal devoted to exploring radical community work practice will be launched later in the year. 

In the run up to the launch the editors are looking for active participation from the field (practitioners, activists, academics). There are three things you may wish to contribute:

1. We are looking for the first papers for the Journal and we are particularly interested in people writing about effective practice.  If you have an idea you want to discuss email: [email protected]
