How do we build meaningful training based not only on the technology, but also on community interests, knowledge and needs?

The publication Technological autonomy as a constellation of experiences: A guide to collective creation and development of training programmes for technical community promoters takes a deep dive into training experiences that can help make this desire a reality.

This guide provides resources for the participatory implementation of training initiatives based on diverse experiences and knowledge from communities in different countries. From practical recommendations to reflections on how to learn from and value the diversity of communities’ values and principles – our constellation – the guide offers an important contribution for people, organisations and communities that see training as crucial to promote their own communication and telecommunications processes within their territories or regions, especially for  community networks.
