Governments at all levels all over the world are committed to strengthening communities â?? that is, improving neighbourliness, mutual support and economic activity in the largest cities and the smallest rural settlements. In this book, researchers, policy-makers and practitioners from Europe, the USA and Australia demonstrate, in a wide variety of settings, how they have developed new initiatives to strengthen communities, concentrating particularly on the role of education and training.
