Community Development Institute - UNBC
The Community Development Institute at UNBC is interested in two fundamental
issues for communities in northern BC: community capacity and community
development. By undertaking research, sharing information, and supporting
education outreach, the Institute is becoming a vital partner to communities
interested in making informed decisions about their own futures.
The institute emphasizes the importance of capacity-building, collaboration,
learning, and complementarity between UNBC research centres. Research that is
undertaken balances academic credibility with practical relevance. Beyond
research, the Institute is involved in outreach activities and serves as a
conduit to expand and enhance local educational opportunities related to community
development.
The three foundations of the Community Development
Institute at UNBC are:
- Research
- Education
- Outreach
