Many organisations wish to integrate a participatory approach into their activities.
A team of experienced PLA trainers have marshalled some of the key lessons they learned over years of training adults in participatory learning and action, into an accessible guidebook for trainers. The handbook begins with the trainees, not the trainer. The authors argue that adult learners have characteristics that should direct the style of training. For example, adults enjoy using their experience and knowledge in the course of training. They prefer to see practical links to their work.
