Links-up is research project about how 'Web 2.0' technologies - e.g. social networking software - are changing the face of education and training for disadvantaged people. The project puts together a picture of the 'landscape' of 'Learning 2.0 for Inclusion' by reviewing what has been done in the academic and research field, and by practitioners working on the ground in projects that have been using Web 2.0 to work with disadvantaged groups. It uses a series of 'action research' experiments, collaborating with 'host' projects working in the field, to evaluate the added contribution Web 2.0 can make to practices that use learning to support social inclusion.
