Produced by the IDEA Community Sector Working Group, this publication provides a set of good practice guidelines for organisations and individuals working, or intending to work, on development education within the adult and community education sectors. The guidelines are intended for practitioners and policy makers, and serve a number of functions:

• as an educational tool for individuals and organisations who want to establish, improve or refresh their practice of development education;

• as an advocacy document for practitioners and policy makers who would like to showcase the value and relevance of development education within their sector and integrate it as a core element of their work;

• as a planning document for policy makers and practitioners who want to develop or revise their internal development education programme or priorities.

These guidelines are a stepping stone towards the embedding of good practice throughout a programme of work.
