Social learning approaches can catalyse knowledge
co-creation and action, so have the potential to help
solve complex ‘wicked’ problems such as climate
change and food insecurity. This working paper
synthesises evidence from five diverse initiatives
employing social learning approaches in response
to such problems using the Climate Change
and Social Learning initiative’s monitoring and
evaluation framework. It finds initial evidence that
key factors in social learning approaches can lead
to clear learning outcomes with resulting positive
changes in values and practice. Links to longer-term
development outcomes are also evident in several
completed initiatives.
