PASCAL International Conference

Making Knowledge Work
Building Sustainable Communities through Partnerships in:
Place Management, Social Capital and Lifelong Learning

University of Stirling

25 -28 October 2005
Stirling, Scotland

This third international conference to be hosted by the PASCAL Observatory on place management, social capital and learning regions provides an opportunity for all with an interest in policy and programme development to share their knowledge and experiences in policy-making, community-building, regeneration and sustainability projects with others from a wide range of fields at local, regional, national and international level.

The conference aims to examine the implications for policy and practice of contemporary research in different models of place management, the role of social capital and the development of learning regions, and to raise fresh questions from practice for further research.

Conference themes

Within the three broad themes of place management, social capital and learning regions, submitted papers, demonstration projects and roundtables will be grouped into
sub-themes as follows:

• Policy makers and researchers working together
• Current reforms and new community priorities in the public, local and regional sectors

• Rural and remote communities and engagement in their futures
• Sustaining economic development and active citizenship in the third age
• Social capital and lifelong learning
