Abstract
ABSTRACT. This article conveys results from a participatory action research (PAR) engagement with activist/educators working in Ghanaian social movements. First, this PAR group has articulated two typologies from which to understand Ghanaian social movements based on their processes of organization, communication and learning rather than merely the issues, resources or populations that occupy their focus.

Both of these contributions help to present a much needed African inflection to ongoing discussions of learning in social movements, especially as these contributions attempt to maintain a complex view of learning based on the shifting characteristics of power and capital.  APPRENDRE À DORMIR SANS PERCHOIR : RÉFLEXIONS D'ÉDUCATEURS ACTIVISTES SUR LES APPRENTISSAGES RÉALISÉS VIA L'ACTION SOCIALE DANS LES MOUVEMENTS SOCIAUX GHANÉENS  RÉSUMÉ.

Ces deux contributions tracent un portrait du besoin pressant des Africains pour des discussions constantes sur les apprentissages dans les mouvements sociaux, dans le contexte où ces contributions permettent de maintenir une vision complexe des appr
