Abstract
Recent results on the evolution of Local Group dwarf galaxies obtained from VLT imaging and spectroscopy are briefly reviewed, and prospects for dwarf galaxy research at the VLT are discussed in the light of the current and forthcoming instrumentation. Some aspects of future instrument developments, such as deep wide-field imaging at both optical and near-infrared wavelengths, that may be of advantage for research on the evolution of dwarf galaxies, are briefly discussed.KeywordsLocal GroupStellar PopulationDwarf GalaxyStar Formation HistoryMetallicity DistributionThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
