CRC Research has released a new case study entitled, Sustainable Waste Management: The Value of Recycling and Composting Programs.

One of the CRC's research objectives is to make a difference through our research. We also want to contribute to more evidence-based policy-making, especially in our field of sustainable community development. We have produced two policy documents for decision-makers, A Policy Agenda for Canadian Municipalities and An Action Agenda for Rethinking Growth and Prosperity. Recently, we have just prepared two briefing notes that summarize these two documents to give to community leaders and decision-makers.
