Community development in education advocates for creating innovative programs and collaboration between community members to advance community learning and sustainability. It aims to equip communities with the skills needed to undertake activities of their choosing. Key aspects of community development in education include lifelong learning, community involvement, efficient use of resources, self-determination, self-help, leadership development, institutional responsiveness, integrated delivery of services, and decentralization. Community educators work with people of all ages across a variety of settings and programs to address community needs through learning and prepare individuals for active community life.
