AB - This study aims to explore the facilitation experiences and meanings of community education activists. For this purpose, 13 activists who had completed facilitation training and had at least three years of experience in community education were selected through a purposive sampling method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using a continuous comparison method. Analysis revealed that community education activists participated in facilitation training out of a desire for values beyond teaching, and that they realized the need to transcend the limitations of their thinking. Community educators recognized the need for embodied facilitation to apply it to their educational activities. Through trial and error, they developed their own methods, and through continuous practice, they rediscovered themselves and utilized it as a mechanism for professional growth. The research results confirmed that facilitation not only fosters individual change, but also serves as a mechanism for community solidarity and public opinion formation. The facilitation of community educators signifies the reproduction of the joy of collaboration into active solidarity. The results of this study are significant in that facilitation provides a foundation for dynamic practices that foster a shift in the mindset of community educators and bring about community change and growth.
