Evaluating The Role Of Transportation And Potential Barriers To Food Access In Binghamton’S North Side, Erin Zipman
Evaluating The Role Of Transportation And Potential Barriers To Food Access In Binghamton’S North Side, Erin Zipman
Student-Created Sustainability Resources
In Binghamton, which is home to the Northside and First Ward food deserts, food insecurity is a significant community concern. Many emergency food aid networks operate in Binghamton, such as community pantries, the Binghamton Food Rescue, North Side Mutual Aid, and CHOW to address immediate needs; however, long-term food security requires removing barriers to food access, such as inadequate transportation. Food-insecure people without personal transportation either try to navigate public transportation, or choose to use more proximate outlets that may lack nutritious foods. Public transportation provided through the Broome County Bus System is limited in the scope of bus routes, …
Researching Broome County Farmers' Markets In The Covid-19 Pandemic, Caroline Burnham
Researching Broome County Farmers' Markets In The Covid-19 Pandemic, Caroline Burnham
Student-Created Sustainability Resources
The value of farmers markets has been shown through their contribution to community building by providing consumers with local food and giving farmers direct access to consumers. The direct connection between farmers and consumers can only be found at places like farmers markets. Having values such as the interaction between farmers and consumers and supporting locally grown food makes farmers markets important to their communities. However, the impact of farmers markets in their communities during the COVID-19 pandemic is unclear. By conducting interviews with people closely involved in farmers markets, I aim to find out how farmers markets in the …

The Relationship Between Small Businesses And Gentrification, Abigail Gifeisman
Student-Created Sustainability Resources
Gentrification is a process of displacement of marginalized or lower-class communities to make room for more affluent communities. While gentrification affects many areas of life, such as price of rent and the job market, this research focuses on small business and the effects gentrification has on them. Small businesses on Main Street and the surrounding downtown in Binghamton, NY will be defined and their role in the community will be explored. This research seeks to understand the latest developments in those areas. In the last six years the area has seen a large boom in new small businesses, giving the …

Internal And External Changes Within Food Organizations Due To The Pandemic, Samantha Goldman
Student-Created Sustainability Resources
Over the decade preceding the pandemic, the number of people in the U.S. relying on subsidiary benefits such as SNAP, free meals from schools, and food pantries have been increasing. This gradually increasing need over time has been accelerating and was exacerbated by the pandemic. With the pandemic causing increased unemployment and forcing school closures, the number of people reliant on food resources outside of those provided by the government have increased. SNAP recipients reliant on sources outside of food stamps, rose from 27% to 60% between 2018 and October of 2020. Between March 9 and March 23 of 2020, …

Student Environmental Conservation And Awareness On College Campuses, Olivia Lopes Dasilva
Student-Created Sustainability Resources
In the midst of a climate crisis, it’s crucial to question how our younger generations view their role in environmental conservation, activism and awareness, and how they implement greener values into their day-to-day lives. This research analyzes student perspectives on their role in environmentalism on their college campuses and if it’s changed through the Covid-19 pandemic. Additionally, this research questions how universities and higher education play a role in shaping these views and ideals among their student body. Through a series of interviews and surveys dispersed to students at both Binghamton University and SUNY Stony Brook, I will draw comparative …

Assessing The Effectiveness Of The Chow Mobile Grocery Store In Broome County In Increasing Fruit And Vegetable Consumption, Allison Zimmerman
Student-Created Sustainability Resources
Access to healthy food is known to be important to maintaining good health. With obesity on the rise in America, this is even more important. Recently mobile market stores have been used to increase access to healthy foods in many underserved communities that are considered food deserts. The purpose of this study is to research and evaluate if there is a significant increase in the consumption of fruits and vegetables in Broome County communities where access to mobile markets is available. To address this, I conducted interviews with volunteers who worked on the mobile market in order to gauge if …

Development And Conservation Of Flood Plains, Jesse Sippel
Development And Conservation Of Flood Plains, Jesse Sippel
Student-Created Sustainability Resources
In Broome County flooding has been a core cause of property damage and a danger to residents; most recently historic flooding occurred in 1976, 2006, and 201l. The reoccurrence of record-breaking floods in the County has become an alarming issue and has caused hundreds of millions in property damage in the past decade alone. In a shift from prior prevention methods using levees, floodwalls, and dams, the County government has moved towards enacting smaller-scale flood mitigation strategies. The conservation and protection of floodplains allow for the increased absorption capacity of wetlands, thus lowering the extent of flooding damages. Thus opportunities …
Improving Donation Management At Finger Lakes Reuse, Shelbi V. Dubord
Improving Donation Management At Finger Lakes Reuse, Shelbi V. Dubord
MPA Capstone Projects 2006 - 2015
Finger Lakes ReUse (FLR) has been steadily growing since opening the doors to its ReUse Center in 2008. Part of this growth has been an increase in material donations that are resold in The ReUse Center, a secondhand store of building materials, household goods, furniture, and electronics. Managing the daily flow of donations is challenging due to limited space and other constraints. yet, FLR must address its donation management processes as the sales from donations cover organizational expenses and allow the organization to maintain financial stability. This project seeks to identify how FLR can increase its revenues and sustainability by …

Innovative Sources Of Non-Aviation Revenue At Small, Non-Hub Airports, Brandon D. Frisbie
MPA Capstone Projects 2006 - 2015
The Greater Binghamton Airport (BGM) in Maine, New York is owned by Broome County and operated under the authority of the Broome County Department of Aviation. The purpose of this capstone project is to identify innovative sources of non-aviation revenue that are viable at small, non-hub airports, like BGM. The Departments of Aviation would like to increase non-aviation revenue at BGM in order to achieve lower station costs for airlines and to preserve the airport's self-sustainability capability.

MPA Capstone Projects 2006 - 2015
For-profit and non-profit entities alike are facing the challenges of recruiting and retaining effective leadership, gathering sufficient and competitive capital and achieving long-term credibility as they struggle to assert their legitimacy and ensure sustainability in an ever changing world. These challenges have forced many organizations to consider different business models of operations, including opportunities to partner with others in their sector. There exists a growing list of non-profit federations that are considering and pursuing complete system redesign through the strategic restructuring of their affiliates in response to factors such as competition for resources, environmental and institutional pressures and the effects …

Social Organization And Water Control Among The Borana Of Southern Ethiopia, Johan. Helland
Social Organization And Water Control Among The Borana Of Southern Ethiopia, Johan. Helland
Institute for Development Anthropology Papers
The long-term success of pastoral production systems depends on the adjustment of the human and livestock populations, which are potentially expanding, to the range resource, which is finite. Among the Borana of southern Ethiopia, this adjustment has been achieved through a complex socio-political system controlling human reproduction and the maintenance and use of dry-season wells. A complex system of generation classes, known as Gada, helps limit population expansion, and access to water during the dry season is controlled by well councils whose membership and function are based on a flexible, but well defined, system of traditional rules.
