Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and who interact regularly to learn how to do it better (Wenger, 2006). These communities are intended to provide safe and supportive spaces for participants to share resources and ideas, explore and question their understandings, solve challenges, and form common commitments for action and improvement.
