Network

circle of heads

We hope to develop a network of Discussion circles. For the time being these links are useful for subject matter and if you are setting up a circle your nearest Workers' Educational Association (WEA) may provide interested parties.

Our discussion notes are often developed from articles on the Open Democracy website

The group also uses the BBC's In Our Time 
and  Thinking Allowed


Esperanto speakers have used DC themes and previous notes as a basis for residential weekends at The Wedgwood Memorial College (WMC). Click links to The Esperanto Association of Britain and to Esperanto education.

We support adult education generally. Visit ARCA,  NIACE and The Raymond Williams Foundation.

See this blog by Derek Tatton giving insight into why the Discussion Circle was started.
