Policy for Adding New Partners and Participants to the BALTA Scaling Innovation for Sustainability Project

The BC-Alberta Social Economy Research Alliance (BALTA) is launching a new research program called Scaling Innovation for Sustainability. The initial phase (2012-2014) is a development phase to develop the framework and plans for the new research program. It also includes development of the research partnership itself. We already have a large group of participants in the project and limited resources to support their participation. Thus, in the short term of our Partnership Development Project phase, additions must be limited and highly strategic. There may be room for further additions later in the process. This policy provides a framework for making decisions on any additions.BC-Alberta Social Economy Research Alliance (BALTA
