Representatives of the RDI attended the 2015 Association of Kootenay Boundary Local Governments Conference to connect with elected officials on the topic of evidence-based decision-making and gather input on priority research needs for our region’s local governments. The enthusiastic crowd of nearly 100 delegates worked together to answer 3 questions related to a list of top-of-mind issues for local governments:
- What issues (challenges/opportunities) are you tackling related to this topic?
- What responses/actions have you implemented or considered?
- What are your current research/information needs related to this topic?
This valuable input will help inform the RDI’s plans for future applied research activities
The RDI’s presentation for this event contains links to several valuable resources that can be used by local governments in their efforts to make evidence-based decisions. A copy of the presentation is available here.
