Community of Learners is a framework for CBPHP to establish, nurture and sustain knowledge creation, ownership and uses for collective community building endeavors that value contributions of "marginalized" groups. CBPHP research, evaluation, employment, independent living, disease prevention, health promotion, and overall healthy community building are, therefore, centered and driven by the individuals and groups who are targeted for change. As a recognition and celebration of the power of inclusion and peoples collective imagination.

CBPHP Library is a practical avenue to make research, evaluation and program insights - both process and end outcomes - easily accessible tools to support inclusive community building and learning towards health promotion and improvements in the quality of life of individuals, families and within neighborhoods. The Library is also a concrete expression and homage to the important CBPHP principle that all participants in the process of knowledge creation have a stake in its ownership. We are keenly aware of the essential and invaluable institutional contributions to documents that are included in the library. These institutional contributions are indicated, recognized and gratefully acknowledged.

Most of the materials in the library are more than a decade old. But we believe that their approaches and lessons remain fresh and relevant to the issues of the day. From neighborhood and community building and revival to present day public health issues, the burdens of inequality, exclusion, marginalization and stigmatization that are underscored in all CBPHP activities remain entrenched. In this context, the materials in the library can be creatively used as examples and background materials to be adapted and expanded to support ongoing inclusive community building and fresh future initiatives. Above all we hope that Community of Learners will remain a vital means of various forms and modes of interaction to further inclusive, collective knowledge creation and uses in ways that empower and enrich ALL.
