Canadian Social Economy Research Partnerships

Content Analysis of Research

Prepared by Emma Sharkey, Student Researcher – November 2008 Theme Title Node Description Key Words Researchers Deliverables BACKGROUND This table represents a snapshot of all the projects in which the Canadian Social Economy Research Partnerships (CSERP) have been/are involved as of November 2008. . The information was compiled from CSERP member midterm reports, websites, and feedback. It can be sorted by a number of useful categories, including key words, regional node and theme. Theme categories were created selecting topics that continuously arise in all projects. Most projects can be categorized under several themes, and where this is the case what appears to be the dominant theme has decided the category with the other overlapping themes listed beside it. For more information about specific projects please contact those researchers or community members who have a deeper understanding of what exactly their projects are examining and whose emails are included in the table from node members.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT This project has been jointly developed by the Canadian Social Economy Hub (CSEHub) and the Canadian Community Economic Development Network (CCEDNet) through the CSEHub's Public Policy Committee, co-chaired by Rupert Downing and Christine de Clercy. Thank you to Emma Sharkey, who carried out the core of the project work, and to the contributions of Annie McKitrick (CSEHub Coordinator) and Janel Smith (Social Economy Student Network and Research Coordinator), who administered the project, and Matthew Thompson (CCEDNet’s Research Program Assistant), who embedded the hyperlinks and assisted in updating the table. A special thank you goes to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, who’s funding made this work possible.

Projects were categorized as follows where they were explicitly and almost solely focused on: Capacity: building organizational capacity Communication: improving communication between SE organizations. Evaluation: evaluating and measuring existing projects or systems, or putting measurement and evaluation processes in place Finance: reviewing current SE, CED, or solidarity financing processes or policies, or researching recommended SE, CED, or solidarity financing processes or policies Food Security: enhancing, publicising, coordinating, and researching food security systems and projects Governance: SE, CED, or solidarity methods of organizational governance Housing: SE, CED, or solidarity related housing Human Services: services involving at risk populations such as seniors, those in assisted living situations or with health and ability challenges, and homeless. Indigenous Communities: SE, CED, or solidarity related projects involving Indigenous communities Mapping: creating an inventory of organizations, policies, or other types related to SE, CED, or solidarity related projects Natural Resources: use and control of natural resources Public Policy: researching and providing public policy recommendations Social Enterprise: enhancing, publicising, coordinating, and researching social enterprises
