WELCOME
Community learning and development (CLD) is a way of working with and supporting communities . It aims to increase the skills, confidence, networks and resources they need to tackle problems and grasp opportunities through community action and community based learning.
In Scotland there are three national priorities for community learning and development:
- Achievement through learning for adults
- Achievement through learning for young people
- Achievement through building community capacity
Community learning and development is delivered by bodies ranging from local authorities to small community groups.
This website aims to do two things:
- Give an introduction to what can be achieved through community learning and development work
- Give information about the work of Community Learning and Development Managers Scotland, its members and its partners.
