The Federation for Community Development Learning (FCDL) supports the development of communities through advancing and promoting community development learning at local, regional and national levels and creating relevant opportunities for good quality training and qualifications. The Federation works with people and organisations across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
- The Federation's values are rooted in the National Occupational Standards in community development work, which state that: the key purpose of community development work is collectively to bring about social change and justice.
- Community development learning (CDL) is central to the practice of community development - helping communities to achieve the active involvement of all people in the issues that affect their lives.
- CDL includes training courses; shadowing and mentoring; exchange visits; as well as professional qualifications. It involves participation and reflection; recognising and validating the experience and skills of participants.
- Community development learning challenges inequality and oppression through its values, practice principles and ways of working.
- It is relevant to everyone from community activists to policy makers.
