    Local Food Project: Strategies for increasing food security on Vancouver Island
    (Office of Community Based Research, University of Victoria, 2011-08) Vancouver Island Community Research Allicance (VICRA); Office of Community Based Research (OCBR)
    This report highlights the results of Vancouver Island Community Research Alliance's (VICRA) Local Food Project. The project's goal is to provide current evidence, drawn from community expertise and peer-reviewed research related to food security on Vancouver Island, to engage in strategic collaborative work, and inform opportunities for future action. The report summarizes research carried out by student interns from post-secondary institutions on Vancouver Island, with oversight provided by advisory committees comprised of both community members and academics. Each strategy area had its own unique approach and process and this is reflected in the findings.
