Biography

Bruce Goldstein is an Associate Professor in theÌýDesign andÌýtheÌýÌýat the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ Boulder, and a faculty research associate in theÌý. He examines how planners, activists, public agency managers and other stakeholders develop collaborative responses to social-ecological challenges, such as rapid growth in the wildlands-urban interface, biodiversity protection, common-property resource management, and climate change. Bruce is particularly interested in how learning networks can catalyze change in stable and durable institutions that are approaching dramatic social and ecological thresholds. Bruce’s past work includes a 6-year study of theÌý, a novel multi-scalar collaborative approach to restoring disrupted fire regimes across multi-jurisdictional landscapes, and the edited bookÌýÌý(MIT Press 2011), which focuses on how crises can be opportunities for collaboration, consensus building, and transformative resilience. Bruce is currently recruiting graduate students to work on two projects – a community and network-scale resilience assessment in partnership with theÌý, and a study of theÌý.
