Subject: online survey



nef (the new economics foundation) and the Carnegie UK Trust have just launched an online questionnaire for civil society associations <http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=WAivHlFmTapzx_2bPCF1oTlA_3d_3d>  to explore how the social justice, climate change and resource agendas can be bridged. The project forms part of a wider programme of work run by the Carnegie UK Trust on the Future of Civil Society. The survey will be open until the 9th of December.

 

What is the purpose of the questionnaire?


The questionnaire has been designed to gather both ideas and concrete examples of how the environmental and social justice agendas are [can] being bridged and is primarily targeted at individuals who have some knowledge of past efforts and initiatives to combine environmental and social justice perspectives; in addition, individuals whose organisations are beginning to make the links between these two agendas. So individuals with perspectives based either on past experience or futures thinking or both. 

 

Who should answer this questionnaire? 

 

This questionnaire should be answered by someone who can answer accurately and authoritatively on behalf of your organisation. 

 

What will happen to your answers? 

 

Your answers will feed into two dimensions of this project. 

 

*	The first dimension is a retrospective analysis of what has been achieved to date in relation to bridging the social justice and climate change agendas. 
*	The second dimension is a futures thinking dimension that explores what can practically be done to bridge these agendas, the current and possible futures roles of civil society associations, and recommendations for changes in policy and practice. 

 

We may wish to contact you to discuss some aspects of your responses. If you do not want us to, you can let us know at the end of the questionnaire.

 

Please note, the survey will be open until the 9th of December

 

Your contributions will be invaluable and hugely appreciated.

Do Good Lives Have to Cost the Earth? <http://www.neweconomics.org/gen/dogoodlives240108.aspx>   We tend to see climate change as an overwhelmingly daunting threat requiring impossible sacrifices. But it's time to rethink say a range of notable experts brought together by nef and the Open University - who share a conviction that living well need not cost the earth. Available from Amazon <http://www.amazon.co.uk/Good-Lives-Have-Cost-Earth/dp/1845296435>  and all good bookshops <http://localbookshops.tbpcontrol.co.uk/tbp.web/customeraccesscontrol/home.aspx?d=localbookshops&s=C&r=10000020&ui=0&bc=0>
