A people’s school is a traditional methodology of the Antigonish Movement and the StFX Extension Department. It brings people together to discuss a contemporary issue of importance starting with the knowledge of the people. New information is often introduced and new knowledge created. People’s Schools also foster action for all who participate. As part of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals and Affordable Housing in Nova Scotia project, five people’s schools were convened.
