Birmingham Zoom-in 3: Community research for a community-oriented urban regeneration

UIA Expert Nils Scheffler explores how “USE-IT! has set up a free accredited community research training programme to train interested local people doing research and work with them as “experts of their neighbourhoods” – people that know about their area and are engaged with their own communities. In addition, Community Researchers were supported in their own research projects and through a programme of commissioned research. Here community researchers delivered research for clients from across the West Midlands.”
