The project focused on how people become engaged in civic life, including the social, historical, cultural, and democratic contexts, and proposes a community development approach to the co-production of knowledge that draws on modes of engagement rooted in community activism, communities of practice, and socially engaged arts practice and community arts. Chapters detail various elements of the project and the different features of the co-production process. They address forming communities of inquiry and developing shared practices, with discussion of re-revisiting historical community-based knowledge, community partner leadership in research, and community-university partnership research retreats; co-creating through and with the arts, including how arts practice informs a community development approach to the co-production of research, co-design and co-creation in a housing estate, and co-producing research with participants in a prison; and the process of curating over shared outputs or endeavors, including using photographic exhibitions to challenge dominant stigmatizing discourses, community partners working on black history, and the co-design and creation of a booklet representing the work of the project.
