Case Study: Lesbian, gay & bisexual communities experiences of learning

This innovative project involved local lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) communities in community-based research to assess the learning opportunities for LGB people in Derbyshire. Through the European Social Fund project, over 130 LGB individuals were interviewed during the primary research including depth interviews and focus groups. The project explored the learning opportunities and support services open to and/or accessed by LGB individuals. The community research methodology involved members of the community as researchers, providing them with training and support. Our project culminated in a high profile dissemination event where the community researchers presented their findings, and the two reports (an evaluation report and a research report) helped inform the LSC's action plan for diversity and equality.
