From earthworks to frameworks : an analysis of the Battle Globe group and their community garden, Reading, UK using the sustainable livelihoods approach
This dissertation has two aims. Firstly, on a practical level, to carry out an assessment of the sustainability of the Battle 'Globe' group (BGG) community garden, in Reading, UK using a participatory action research approach. Secondly, on a theoretical level, to use the Sustainable rural Livelihoods (SRL) approach as a framework for analysing the community garden. The definitions and concepts behind the SRL approach are discussed. This is followed by an analysis of the community garden using parts of the SRL framework.
