Lifelong Action Learning
By Richard Teare
To mark GULL’s tenth anniversary year, co-founder Richard Teare published a book about workplace and community-based lifelong action learning. During the ten year period, GULL has supported initiatives in 55 countries and the book draws on Richard’s work prior to GULL’s launch and from 2007-2018 - with reference to some 50 examples.
The book poses this question: Why is it that in the 21st century the place where a person is born still determines their life chance? The book aims to explain and illustrate the transformational potential of self-directed lifelong learning. As one response, it also outlines how a systematic approach can be provided to those who are traditionally excluded - the low paid, the marginalized and the millions of people who are living in poverty.
Part 1 covers key concepts; Part 2 focuses the workplace; Part 3 the community and Part 4, GULL networks.
The Amazon Kindle e-book version was published on Monday 5 February and the Amazon paperback version on Tuesday 6 February (Right). For more details see: ‘Lifelong action learning’ by Richard Teare.
