Description

This book explores the potential contribution that
community-based research can make within social and
economic regeneration programmes. The book
demonstrates that community based research is an
important part of regeneration in a number of ways.
This book is important in highlighting the practice
of community based research within an existing
policy context that promotes participation,
engagement and empowerment. This volume is an
exploration of community based research and
evaluation within the existing literature drawn from
health, social welfare and evaluation fields.
Secondly the book explores the regeneration context
of Objective 1, South Yorkshire, discussing the
community based research applied there to
demonstrate the policy implications of using such
approaches as part of regeneration initiatives.
