Community practices in India: lessons from the grassroots

As the seat of the origin of social work profession, the global North has dominated the production of social work knowledge while the global South has remained primarily the consumer of knowledge.

This book is a ground-breaking collaboration by practitioners and academics from India to bring together indigenous knowledge in community organising from the rich and vast base of experience existing within the country.

It presents case studies of community organising that have successfully followed the agenda of social justice and social change for marginalised communities in various contexts in India.
