Join sociology researcher Lasse Kos to explore the impact of ecovillages worldwide, via a presentation on the results of the largest global survey on ecovillages.
Ecovillages are regarded as real-life laboratories of sustainable change. They are communities in which people develop sustainable, social, ecological, economic and cultural practices. These emerging innovations can provide important insight for the broader society and drive sustainability transitions.
Ecovillages as Incubators for Sustainability Transitions (EVIST) is a research project of the University of Basel, Switzerland. The EVIST survey is the largest global survey on ecovillages. The aim of the survey is to measure how extensively and intensively ecovillages diffuse their sustainable innovations to their local and social environments.
During this 1.5 hour event, researcher Lasse Kos will share the results of this survey. You’ll get insights into the impact of ecovillages in North America, Europe and beyond and have the opportunity to network with other attendees.
Lasse Kos is a PhD student in sociology at the University of Basel. His PhD project is part of the research project Ecovillages as Incubators of Sustainability Transitions (EVIST).
He started his academic journey with a study in cultural anthropology & development sociology at the University of Amsterdam. Subsequently, he completed an interdisciplinary social science master in Global Studies at the University of Wroclaw and the University of Leipzig.
Lasse’s research interests center around the topic of the multiscale governance of sustainability transitions. Within the wider scope of the EVIST research project, he is particularly interested in the mutual influencing relationship between the diffusion of grassroots initiatives’ sustainable innovations and the different governance frameworks that are in place.
