    -------------------------------------

    Network for Business Sustainability seeks a researcher to engage in an upcoming project. This project will explore the role of business in broad citizen engagement processes around sustainability topics (sometimes termed "deliberative processes"). The project centers on a day-long meeting, with senior executives as the primary audience. The researcher will help shape the meeting and will develop related materials, to ensure academic rigor as well as managerial relevance. The researcher will receive a CAD$10,000 stipend (unrestricted). Applications (a cover letter and CV) are due January 23, 2013, and researchers from around the world are welcome to apply.

     

    The call for applications is available on our website: http://nbs.net/wp-content/uploads/NBS-Call-Project-on-Public-Dialogue.pdf

     

    Please forward this opportunity to your colleagues who may be interested. And, please consider subscribing to NBS (http://nbs.net/members/signup/) to receive notice of future opportunities as well as other resources.
