BALTA Project C9 - CED and Social Economy Policy Inventory in B.C. and Alberta

Abstract

This project proposal/plan outlines a research project of the BC-Alberta Social Economy Research Alliance (BALTA). The research will involve conducting an inventory of federal and provincial legislation (in Canada and the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia), policies and programs that are relevant to community economic development and the social economy. Initial work will focus on developing a classification framework to guide the inventory. This will be followed by a systematic surveying and analysis of relevant legislation, policies and programs.
