Summary
Natural Capital
A summer student has produced a report on an approach for gather data on
natural capital to be included in the community capacity model.
Rural / Urban Values
A master's student has completed a literature review (1st draft) on previous
approaches to measuring and reporting environmental values. The work
identifies key variables that should be included in surveys, as well as
theoretical approaches to the categorization of values.
Governance of natural resources
Two students are working in this theme. This summer they have conducted
initial interviews with potential case study sites. Both projects will take
a case study approach to addressing the issue. Proposals will be prepared
before Christmas.
