Participatory Learning

Participatory learning is foundational to Policy LINK’s approach to strengthening local policy systems. Learning is both a collaborative process that brings together and improves the dynamics between diverse stakeholders and an important outcome of collaborative action. As such, how we facilitate learning among stakeholders is as important as the knowledge and evidence that are generated. Policy LINK’s role is to facilitate iterative learning processes that help our partners develop—and act on—a shared sense of purpose grounded in evidence and the perspectives of a diverse set of stakeholders, from research institutes to academia to citizens.
