This research study investigates the barriers to learning amongst four selected communities. The four selected communities are the Pakistani; Bangladeshi; Somali and African Caribbean communities in South Wales. Whilst it is known these four communities face considerable disadvantage in terms of accessing learning, training and employment opportunities, little research has been undertaken on the social and cultural barriers confronting the four communities and their motivations for participating in learning and the labour market.
