‘This ""Guide to Collaborative Action"" is a systematic and accessible resource – providing direction and inspiration for current and future change agents. Decades of experience have been synthesized in an innovative, integrative and invaluable guide that opens new and creative pathways toward transformational change.’ – Margot Parkes, Professor, University of Northern British Columbia, Canada and President, International Association for Ecology & Health ‘The Collective Social Learning process is simply outstanding. We have found that the framework energises participants, leads to individual and collective action and is transformative. Collective learning has become one of our key change processes in our city’s sustainability journey. We have also used the guide to conduct collective learning programs around Australia, and in the USA, New Guinea and Ethiopia.’ – Greg Bruce, Executive Manager, Integrated Sustainability Services, Townsville City Council, Queensland, Australia ‘As a consultant in the field of international development, I highly recommend this book for everyone who is facilitating intentional transformational change. Based on concepts of collective learning, it brings together clear exercises and an A-Z of essential tools. The many case studies demonstrate how the collective learning spiral can be a vehicle for transformational change in a wide range of cultures.’ – Sara Cummings, International consultant, Integrated Knowledge Management Emergent, a European Aid Development Initiative and Editor, Knowledge Management for Development Journal
