With overviews of recent developments and stakeholder perspectives, the book introduces contemporary themes in policy and practice.

Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, the guide includes: - text boxes and figures to illustrate key points; - end of chapter summaries; - international case studies; - further reading guides. For students, practitioners, policy makers and newcomers alike, this is an accessible and comprehensive guide to an increasingly prioritised and debated topic.
