Perspectives on Development from Entrepreneurs in the San Luis Valley, Colorado (USA)
Project Description
In a remote area of the US, characterized by colonial legacies and an influx of diverse migrant groups, Anthony Meluso asks entrepreneurs from various backgrounds how they conceive of development. Using a mixture of participant observation, biographical interviews; and open-ended interviews, he hopes to contribute to an interdisciplinary understanding that supports well-being initiatives, assisting people to achieve their own goals.
