Current Research Projects
Through the ReSET Lab, we lead and participate in a wide range of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research efforts. We generally embrace "flipping the script" with projects that embed engineering and technologies in its societal context through social science led framings and co-production with communities. This work takes places in a wide range of locations and with communities and households in the Canadian North, Mozambique, and New Jersey, USA.
Transforming places for the precariously housed: Equitable adaptation pathways for climate mobilities
Funded by the Canadian New Frontiers Research Fund (NFRF): International Joint Initiative for Research in Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Competition.
Also supported by UKRI and NSF South Africa
Alternative Governance and Climate Change
Funded by the US Minerva Initiative, this project explores the dynamics of armed nonstate actors as governors over issues related to environmental hazard and climate change.
Megalopolitan Coastal Transformation Hub (MACH)
Funded by the US National Science Foundation, the ReSET Lab is a founding member of the MACH hub that strives brings together diverse research teams with coastal stakeholders and decision-makers. Through knowledge co-production, we strive for equitable climate adaptation decision-making in coastal communities.
Vulnerability Beyond Indicators: A Workshop
In 2023, with the support of a Canadian SSHRC Connection Grant, Dr. Gilmore co-led a knowledge exchange on the methods for evaluating “personal-political” climate vulnerability and adaptation hosted at Concordia University.
