| Biosphere Reserves & Local Governments: Exploring Ways to Work Together | August 3, 2021 - 10:45am |
“I work for the Mount Arrowsmith Biosphere Region Research Institute” is a sentence I have said many times over the last year. Most frequently this statement is followed by the question “What’s the Mount Arrowsmith Biosphere Region?” I also asked this the first time I heard of the MABR, but I chalked up my lack of awareness to the fact I grew up about 7,500 km east of the MABR in London, UK. Though it turns out that even some people who were born and raised in the Region, don’t realise the internationally recognised importance of the place they call home. |
| Playing for change | July 27, 2021 - 12:15pm |
I have had the opportunity to work for MABRRI as a research assistant for the past year, with most of my work focused around community planning. But the odd day, I get a change up from my routine and get to try something new! On July 6th, I had the chance to participate in The World’s Future Social Simulation with six other MABRRI Research Assistants. I have always been passionate about sustainability and the SDGs, and this simulation was an excellent opportunity to dive right in. |
| Promoting the Nanaimo Trail Survey to Mountain Bikers | July 21, 2021 - 8:26am |
Most evenings you can find us on the trails looking to chat with anyone riding a mountain bike. One of the projects us Research Assistants (RAs) at MABRRI are working on this summer is implementing the Nanaimo Trail Survey in person. The Trail Survey is in collaboration with Matt Bowes, a Geography and Global Studies professor at VIU, and the Nanaimo Mountain Bike Club. The goal of this survey is to get observations and perspectives of mountain biking in Nanaimo by talking with people riding the trails. |
| SDGs and Youth | April 12, 2024 - 1:23pm |
As part of MABRRI’s Universities and the SDGs: Engaging the campus community with the 2030 Agenda project, this webpage is an SDG resource hub for both youth and educators. We hope that by providing youth access to SDG resources, we can help facilitate conversations and initiatives to increase engagement and implementation for the SDGs. |
| Safeguarding your research | December 5, 2024 - 2:42pm |
Canada’s move towards open and collaborative research has increasingly meant that our world-class research has become the target of espionage and foreign interference activities which pose threats to research security as well as to national security, economic competitiveness, and prosperity. The work of safeguarding research conducted in Canada requires a coordinated effort by all actors in the research enterprise including government, universities and researchers. |
