LA area Based Transportation Expert Advisor Needed for Sustainable Communities Initiative
ORGANIZATION: Global Green USA
Please visit the new page to apply.
Global Green is starting the next phase of its sustainable communities project, which has been implemented thus far in 30 cities. We're seeking help from an expert in the field of transportation to advise on the community needs assessment program.
The volunteer will provide consultation to Global Green on how to expand its community needs assessments, primarily focused on low-income and disadvantaged communities, to identify clean transportation barriers, needs, and opportunities. This may include alignment with disaster relief or resilience plans.
Examples of strategies for making this evaluation and recommendation may include:
- Review of Global Green projects
- Case studies that the consultant is familiar with from their own work and/or;
- Primary research
