    Ep. 55 - When Communities Can Be Part of the Problem in Community-Based Inclusive Development

    This episode draws its title from a chapter written by Kenya-based academics and CD practitioners Daniel Muia, Stellah Masese and Boniface Munene Rufo, in the 2025 book: 'Community-Based Inclusive Development: An Introduction' (eds. Joerg Weber and Shaun Grech) on Palgrave Using disability as a lens through which to explore community based inclusive development Daniel, Stellah and Boniface discuss their work in northern Kenya that shows how communities can create exclusion of persons with disability via myths and misconceptions about disability. Myths and perceptions held by communities often adversely influence conceptualization of disability. Persons with disability often face violence and rejection by the same communities that ought to promote inclusivity. Stereotyping makes persons with disability feel incompetent, devalued and hence demotivated to participate in community-led activities. _________________________ Follow the podcast on Bluesky at: bsky.app/profile/cdpodcast.bsky.social Support the podcast on Patreon at www.patreon.com/TheCDPodcast Produced by Russell Todd (email: russell@russelltodd.cymru) My book Community Development, Social Action and Social Planning: A Practical Guide (co-written with Alan Twelvetrees) is available to order from Policy Press: https://policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/community-development-social-action-and-social-planning-6e

    Ep.52 - Putting Freire Into Practice: The Gorgie-Dalry Adult Learning Project

    Stan Reeves joins the podcast in this episode to look back at the Adult Learning project that ran for a number of years from 1979 in Gorgie-Dalry in west Edinburgh. It very explicitly drew on the teachings and ideas of the Brazilian educator Paulo Freire (1921-1997). In 1989 a book was written about the ALP and subsequently re-published several times. It can be accessed here: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-94-6091-552-9 Music credit: Robert Fish Band - '2/4 Marches (Gay Gordons)': https://youtu.be/A7OgOnDJeqI?si=MnfZRVDasn7Sg5ZC ________________________________ Follow the podcast on Bluesky at: bsky.app/profile/cdpodcast.bsky.social Support the podcast on Patreon at www.patreon.com/TheCDPodcast Produced by Russell Todd (email: russell@russelltodd.cymru) My book Community Development, Social Action and Social Planning: A Practical Guide (co-written with Alan Twelvetrees) is available to order from Policy Press: https://policy.bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/community-development-social-action-and-social-planning-6e

    Ep.50 - "Being the change you want you to see": Youth-led action with the Grange Youth Forum

    For episode 50 Russell heads to Cardiff's Grangetown district in the south of the city to chat with two of the founders of Grange Pavilion's Youth Forum (GPYF) - Nirushan Sudarsan and Shoruk Nekeb. They tell the story of GPYF's origins as a project within the wider Community Gateway project in Grangetown, a long-term community-university civic mission project. They also give a flavour of some of its activities and how GPYF acts as a crucible for discussions about global citizenship, resistance and organising for young people. We also hear from other members of GPYF: Eleeza, Mahima and Amira.

    Ep.49 - Cross-border community collaboration in Ireland

Caitriona is a Derry native and has specialised in cross-border collaboration and policy across Europe in her career in European Union (EU) Affairs, Regional Development, Local Government, Health & Social Care and Communities policy.

It is available here: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-59117-5 Giada and Catriona discuss the importance of not only the EU in the peace process in Northern Ireland but the role of communities and community leaders, in particular women, in ensuring that that policy framework is complemented by community dialogue and collaboration.
