‘Training for Transformation – A Handbook for Community Workers’

By Anne Hope and Sally Timmel

Training for Transformation provides a basic and comprehensive text for:

  • adult education workers
  • social workers
  • community development workers
  • church workers and trade union educators, and
  • all concerned with the process of transforming society

Training for Transformation is designed to assist workers in the field who are encouraging the development of self-reliant creative communities. The book has as its basic philosophy the belief that we should all participate in making this world a more just place to live in.

Manual I explores Freire’s theory on developing critical awareness and how to put his theory into practice.

Manual II is focused on the skills necessary for participatory education. To break the “culture of silence” people need to gain a sense of self-confidence and know what they think is important. Therefore, methods to involve the group actively, are critical in group leadership, as are ways of clarifying and implementing the goals of the group.

Manual III deals with the social analysis necessary to develop critical awareness and long-term planning with steps needed for building solidarity in people’s movements.

Manual IV is a workbook that recognizes that the only changes which effectively transform the lives of poor people are those in which they have been active participants. This book, and earlier books in the Training for Transformation Series, give many proven and practical ways of getting this process started. Manual IV focuses on five issues that have become prominent in the concerns of communities throughout the world: the environment, gender, racism, multicultural understanding, and building participatory governance.

‘Anne Hope – The Struggle For Freedom’ by Stephanie Kilroe

“Anne Hope is well known as president of the lay ecumenical community The Grail in South Africa, as co-founder of the acclaimed Training for Transformation programme for community development, and for her important work in the struggle against apartheid. Less is known about her dramatic and inspiring inner journey. Here, drawing on unique access to Anne’s diaries and prayer journals, Stephanie Kilroe sheds light on this previously hidden life and her struggle for freedom and wholeness in herself, in vocation, and in love.”
