#CommDev18 Community Development Society - 49th International Conference

Communities in Appalachia are often divided by seemingly arbitrary administrative regional borders drawn by federal entities. The Central Appalachian Regional Brownfields Innovation Network (CABIN) seeks to cross those borders, bringing communities of similar size, assets, and challenges together to facilitate more effective redevelopment in small, rural communities. Connect with others from our region to discuss how we might collaborate and learn from one another more effectively.

In advance, explore and bring ideas of a potential manuscript to the table that focuses on using Alternative Methodologies to study community development.
