I teach at both Undergraduate and Postgraduate level at the Bartlett School of Planning. For the past three years I have been mainstreaming a teaching format based on community embedded learning with the purpose of developing the role and impact of the university and its researchers in supporting community organisation through technical expertise. Community-based and collaborative learning allows students to engage with the actual protagonists and their experience of planning and urban development. This format is developed jointly with Just Space (https://justspace.org.uk)
