It describes how these Australian schools and communities were able to benefit from working with 'street-level' bureaucrats who had reinvented themselves around notions of socially just forms of capacity-building. The book provides a set of insights into what is possible from a critical engagement for school and community renewal perspective, by working with the resources that exist within disadvantaged contexts, even in damaging neoliberal policy times. \u003ci\u003eCritically Engaged Learning\u003c\/i\u003e breaks new and important ground across urgent and fractured boundaries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang Us","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47611101118615,"sku":"9781433101557","price":4193.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781433101557.webp?v=1775069161","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/critically-engaged-learning-connecting-to-young-lives-9781433101557","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
