Abstract	The following content analysis aims to explore how community development has been conceived in Canadian adult education. The analysis is based on publications of the "Canadian Journal for the Study of Adult Education" (CJSAE) from 2009 to 2019. This article is motivated by the understanding that community development is an intrinsic part of Canadian adult education history. Thus, having reviewed the CJSAE publications, I have conceived community development within Canadian adult education in five ways: research-based and classroom-based community development, transnational feminist radical community-led development, feminist empowerment-focused community development, film festivals as community development, and queer activism and community development. I conclude by saying that despite community development being a terminology seldom explored in the articles analyzed, the commitment to building communities to liberate and transform society is still the driving force of our field of scholarship and practice.
