From Problems to Possibilities—Part II: Integrating Values Discussions in an Innovative Interactive Values Survey

Dr. Taylor was granted Research and Professional Development funds to test a national values survey project by examining social media and online discussion formats in communities across Canada.

This application is for funding required to complete a ‘beta run’ on a complex, interactive national survey that additionally engages both online and in person conversations among Canadians about their values and the culture they aspire to for Canada. This portion of the work will involve testing social media and online discussion formats and their supportive role in relation to community-based discussions that are currently being scheduled in communities across Canada. This entire 2018 initiative will provide the rationale, knowledge, and design for a partnership development grant application this year, and related publications that support and illuminate the values survey for social impact.
