'The Cycles and Spirals of Justice in Water Allocation Decision Making' Tuesday 2nd December 4pm, Dalhousie 3G02, LT1
Abstract - Managing for social and environmental justice in water allocation is a necessary yet challenging goal. Often what can appear as a just or equitable outcome for a specific location or group of stakeholders can also result in injustices at other locations or for other stakeholders. This presentation describes a conceptual framework that helps make sense of the relationship between justice and injustice in the context of water allocation decision making. It describes how justice and injustice are part of a cycling continuum of ‘justice for whom’ and how this plays out in a multilevel system where the problem of scale can surface.
