Canadian Perspectives on Community Development - Paperback
by Sarah Todd (Editor), Sébastien Savard (Editor), Maurice Beaudin (Contribution by)
Founded in a perspective that speaks to the diversity of contexts and processes used across Canada, this work is nevertheless firmly grounded in theory, offering an in-depth analysis geared toward advanced study in community practice.
This depth is further strengthened by the diversity of topics represented in this collective work: community work in various regions of the country exploring issues of poverty and environmental activism; community work with immigrants and refugees, and with trans communities; feminist community organizing as well as organizing with persons with disabilities and with members of linguistic communities; and, finally, arts based community work with the elderly. Published in English.Sébastien Savard est professeur à l'École de service social de l'Université d'Ottawa. Ses recherches portent notamment sur le développement communautaire, la relation entre l'État et les organismes communautaires ainsi que l'accès aux services de soins et aux services sociaux pour les francophones vieillissants dans un contexte de minorité linguistique. Il a publié bien des articles dans des revues scientifiques, tant en français qu'en anglais, et a présenté son travail dans le cadre de conférences au Canada et à l'échelle internationale.
