Society information

Community Development Society

The Community Development Society furthers community work through teaching, practice, and research. CDS provides those who do community work with best practices, networking opportunities, tools, and other resources.

Local Development & Society, the companion journal to Community Development, will offer a unique outlet for the study of localism, which is a rapidly expanding field of study among academics, practitioners and policy-makers. The study of localism is an area of keen interest of the society and its members.

Individual members of the CDS enjoy a free personal subscription to the Community Development pack, which includes both Community Development and Local Development & Society, and you can join as well by visiting: https://www.comm-dev.org/membership
