Title Learning through study circles
 
Creator Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Cooperation
 
Description Responding to the general decline of agricultural extension programmes in the Sahel and elsewhere, Moussa Idi Abdou, an extension officer in Keita, Niger, urges people 'to consider the study circles method which was developed in 1981 by the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions. The study circle is composed of six to ten volunteers who wish to work together to solve common problems, and assign themselves learning tasks and mobilise their teachers. They meet regularly, usually every week. This makes sure that people at the grassroots are reached as quickly as possible.'

We have also heard of weekly study circles being held over the Internet of agricultural trade union workers in Barbados, Kenya, Peru and South Africa to deal with health and safety issues.
