We alternatively present scholarship that delves into children’s and animals’ subjective encounters and intersecting worldhoods as critical of more anthropocentric developmental psychology models. We utilize continuity as a model that emerges from our field work in order to make various suggestions about the ethics that emerge from children’s embodied experiences with animals, including felt senses of vulnerability, death, and precarity.

This chapter explores a citizen-led approach to measuring and enhancing community well-being within Ontario’s Headwaters region, which resulted in the publishing of a first Headwaters Community Well-Being Report in the Fall of 2011. The Report responded to a desire for greater planning and collaboration across a region that is made up of small urban and rural villages on the border of a larger urban area.
