The LEAD Approach: Case Study Content and the Opportunities for Community Participation

For over twelve years, LEAD has researched and written case studies that provide a clear analysis of a range of sustainable development issues. Created for international training sessions, these case studies explore a wide variety of local development issues from historical, economic, social and environmental viewpoints in communities around the world.

These case studies have proven to be a powerful instructional tool for training and education for sustainable development while at the same time, engaging community actors who are on the quest for sustainable development.
