The document is presented in five chapters.

Chapter II provides an overview of sociocultural community development. Topics discussed include guidelines for cultural policies, the relationship of community development to formal education, and adaptation of community development programs to specific types of housing areas. Chapter III discusses training and status of individuals involved in sociocultural community development. Chapter IV presents a catalog of 200 community development projects in nations belonging to the Council of Europe. The final chapter offers observations on the future of sociocultural development in Europe. (DB) Note:The following two links are not-applicable for text-based browsers or screen-reading software.
