Fenner Hall's Aid and Development Learning Community

A community exploring the theory and practise of aid and development in Australia and internationally.

The Aid and Development Learning Community at Fenner Hall is a group of over 150 staff, students, alumni and members of the wider community who are interested in gaining knowledge about and participating in Aid and Development programs in Australia and overseas. We promote Aid and Development events around Canberra and host workshops, lectures and information sessions on a wide variety of Aid and Development topics. For more information please contact developmentlc@anu.edu.au.

Aid:Live was an Aid and Development Learning Community Event held at Fenner Hall on 18 September 2008. Representatives from 15 Aid, Development, Community and Volunteer organisations came to Fenner Hall to speak with over 100 Learning Community members about their programs.
