ESAC/ACEE NEWS! 2006

ESAC member Cheryl Teelucksingh has edited the book Claiming Space: Racialization and Canadian Cities which will be published in June/July 2006 by Wilfrid Laurier University Press (ISBN: 0-88920-499-3).

Claiming Space: Racialization in Canadian Cities explores the complexity of race and space in a range of urban contexts and the role that various stakeholders play in the production of racialized space. Contributors reflect on the ways in which race is systematically hidden within the workings of Canadian cities despite objective evidence of racial diversity and the dominant ideology of multiculturalism, and consider the ways in which racialized people are attempting to claim space.

ESAC member Debra Davidson’s co-edited (with Kierstin Hatt), collaborative book Consuming
Sustainability: Critical Social Analyses of Ecological Change (Fernwood Publishing, 2005) was very positively reviewed in March 12, 2006 edition of The Edmonton Journal. Davidson’s research on Alberta ‘ghost” towns was the basis of an article in The Edmonton Journal and other national
press. “Ultimately, the goal isn't so much to learn about Canada's small towns as it is about social sustainability,” she told the journalist.

The Canadian Environmental Literacy Project

The Canadian Environmental Literacy Project (CELP) is a new entity, funded by a private foundation for three years, with a mandate to develop educational materials to support the teaching of environmental studies in Canada. CELP is founded on the belief that it is critical that students have a well-informed understanding of natural and socioeconomic systems, and of how their actions and those of others affect the broader environment, including humans and their economy, as well as ecosystems and other species. Achieving a broad-based environmental literacy will be integral to effectively dealing with issues at the regional, national, and global levels.
