… to the new blog of the EVALUATE (Energy Vulnerability and Urban Transitions in Europe) research project! The blog is authored by a group of academics led by Professor Stefan Bouzarovski at the University of Manchester. EVALUATE, which is funded by the European Research Council and will run for the next five years, involves an interdisciplinary research team, and seeks to produce results of relevance to academics, policy makers, non-governmental organizations and business.
I hope to turn this blog into a hub for not only presenting the results of the project, but also engaging with wider audiences on questions of energy vulnerability (understood as the propensity of a household to experience a lack of adequate energy services in the home), sustainability transitions, urban transformation and community participation.
