UVM Final Presentations | 12/7 | Big Picture
Posted on December 1st, 2011 by Joshua Schwartz
UVM students participating in the 3rd annual Local Community Initiatives course will be making their final presentations to the MRV on the evening of 12/7, 6-8 PM, at The Big Picture.
Students and community members have been hard at work on four projects through the fall semester:
- Compost Power - Students are researching the Jean Pain Method, developing educational materials for agricultural enterprises in the MRV, surveying potential users, and providing a final report.
- Waitsfield Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Program - Students are researching PACE programs nationwide, identifying barriers and opportunities for PACE, providing a synopsis of key housing data metrics, and provide a report that will serve to inform best practices and next steps.
- Mad River Valley Health Center - Students are developing a snapshot of the MRV from a health perspective by mapping local health resources, developing a strategy and survey to assess community health needs, collect data, and providing a final report and recommendations for improving the health status of MRV residents.
- MRV Solar Farm - Students are researching other co-operatively owned/managed solar projects nationwide, surveying and compiling responses regarding potential interest in such a project, developing education materials, and providing a report on education materials and survey responses.
Please come out and make this a true celebration of the students hard work and community togetherness!
