Connected to Place looks at place-based systems change as a real-world solution to our growing environmental and social crises. Distilling lessons from a thirty-year career in the social sector, Matt Biggar offers a practical guide to creating conditions for societal transformation. He presents a vision that reorients people's daily lives around their neighborhoods and communities, and he shows us how we can get there.
When thinking about place-based systems change, many questions arise. What systems do we change? How do we change them? What outcomes are we seeking? In Connected to Place, Biggar answers these questions for advocates, planners, policymakers, educators, and others interested in systems change. Readers will learn about the ideas, tools, and pathways imperative to creating lasting, regenerative change. By reframing our approach to social progress, Connected to Place outlines the way toward rebuilding connection with nature and local community and revitalizing local and regional economies.
