...the three editors, shaped the volume M2 Models and Methodologies for Community Engagement through carefully chosen international contributions ranging from listening to the local knowledge of village women in rural India to pro bono work in suburban Australia, from hypothetical urban planning in Japan to women's health knowledge in rural Uganda. All the examples chosen embrace an embedded and locally informed knowledge.
