Social Sciences Week 2022 - Household experiments in low waste living: Working toward a sustainability transition
Australia is experiencing an urban waste crisis and there is an urgent need to change norms and practices at the household level. Households are often seen as a problem for sustainability transitions, but they are also a source of innovation. We discuss our ARC funded participatory action project working with 35 householders to co-design and evaluate household 6-week experiments in low waste living. In this online panel hear from some of the householders and the research team. Information on the larger project is available here.
