Description
This project undertakes the preliminary work for infrastructure development
that will link and derive maximum benefit from two recently funded,
independently established, parallel programs of research in places
and health in Montréal and Calgary. The empirical work of the
programs is complemented by a strong emphasis on (re) theorising place
/ context and health relationships from different disciplinary perspectives.
The research questions focus on how we are going about doing the work
and how we might do it better by collaborating. The chief purpose
is to create resources for dissemination, in particular, detailed
resource packages about data collation and synthesis and literature
appraisal.
