Welcome to episode eleven of the Knowledge Exchange Podcast. This podcast series is a product supported by the Canadian Council on Learning – Canada’s leading organization committed to improving learning across Canada and in all walks of life.
I want to thank the great staff at CCL for their efforts with this project to advance our understanding of effective knowledge exchange to improve the learning of Canadians.

Dr. Budd Hall is a pioneer – working on pushing our understanding and our ability to work together productively and with maximum shared benefit. He is credited with coining the term “participatory action research” and has been a leader in adult learning – in life-long learning for more years than he cares to admit. This conversation took place in his home in Victoria. Victoria is engaged in some very exciting experiments that are changing the way our institutions work with each other and benefit from active knowledge exchange. I really like the concept of expanding the interaction of “knowledges” and of building evidence for action from many sources. I also like his hopefulness and enthusiasm. Hopefully it rubs off on you all – enjoy.
