The first phase of our research, from 2011 to 2013 studied 11 community leaders, and the detailed case study descriptions may be found here . For a detailed description of the first phase, click here . Th
We are now wrapping up the second phase of our three-year SSHRC-funded research project, in which we have gathered new scientific evidence of whether mitigation and adaption activities result in transformative changes toward more sustainable paths at the local scale. We have been developing a coherent theory of development path change, the conditions under which development paths can be transformed, including the drivers and barriers to action, as well as key indicators associated with such a shift. We have
The research team and partners remained the same as the previous project with a few invaluable additions. MC 3 2.0 brings together researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers from non-governmental organizations, provincial ministries, and three of BC’s universities to capitalize on further study of this provincial living laboratory. We were privileged to be joined by Dr. François Jost , a postdoctoral researcher at Royal Roads University; Alastair Moore , a doctoral student at the University of Mancheste
