I am proud to present Voices from Appalachia: Eastern Kentucky in Transition. Congratulations to the report writers, Liz Aeschlimann, Becky Goncharoff, Vanessa Moll and Mariela Riches, as well as the countless others who have contributed to the report!!!
Hoping to build on relationships that were established in 2009 with the creation of Voices from Appalachia: A Human Rights Perspective, ENGAGE returned to Eastern Kentucky in the summer of 2010. With momentum building around the emerging Appalachian Transition Initiative, KFTC and ENGAGE decided to use the summer’s resources to profile and tie together projects contributing to an alternative vision of economic development in Eastern Kentucky.
Voices from Appalachia: Eastern Kentucky in Transition was researched late June to early August and written between August and September 2010 by ENGAGE members who lived in eastern Kentucky for the summer. It documents individuals and projects in the region working for an economic transition away from extractive industry and toward small scale, local economies.
