Description:
The Barefoot Guide Connection is a global community of practice from dozens of countries, on every continent, dedicated to promoting the writing and sharing of real stories, approaches, ideas and resources about effective social development and change practice. Through storytelling and action learning based case study writing we support on-the-ground practitioners to value their experience and appreciate the insights and wisdom they can offer to others, be they other practitioners, programme managers, policy-makers, students and academics or donors. In so doing they provide common reference guides for multi-stakeholder understanding and collaboration around the real work of change.
