Please join us this Wednesday, December 3 at 12:30-2pm in the Walker Room (5664 Haven Hall) for the next installment of The Networks Network. The presentation will be by Paige Fischer, Assistant Professor in the School of Natural Resources and Environment at the University of Michigan. Paige will speak on “Methods for Investigating Capacity to Adapt to Environmental Change in a Governance Network.” I think that Paige’s talk will be of special interest to people who wish to learn about collecting network data in field settings.
There will be no meeting of the Networks Network on November 19. Instead, students are strongly encouraged to attend the subfield luncheon most relevant to them.
Likewise, we will not meet on November 26 due to the Thanksgiving break.
