This book applies and expands upon the concept of the 'learning
conference' as a site of learning and development, using the
paradigm and methodologies of participatory action learning and
action research (PALAR). Making a significant contribution to the
field, this is the first book to outline the characteristics and
development of a learning conference culture in theory and
practice. It demonstrates how application of the learning
conference concept can maximise learning opportunities and
successful research outcomes to bring about sustainable
professional, organizational and community development. An
international team of contributors offer their diverse perspectives
on conferences and the practical and theoretical work conducted at
these events. They contextualize these reflections in the light of
global developments in this increasingly troubled twenty-first
century marked by greater complexity through technology,
globalization, neo-liberalism, climate change and other sources of
practical and ideological change, all of which enhance the
conceptual and practical utility of the learning conference.
