Notă biografică
Scott Cloutier is Assistant Professor and Senior Sustainability Scientist in the School of Sustainability at Arizona State University. His background includes serving six years in the U.S. Navy, Bachelor and Master degrees in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the University of New Hampshire, and a Doctorate in Biological and Environmental Engineering from Cornell University. His focus is charting a new course for sustainability that is synergistic with human well-being and happiness. Scott is Founder and Director of ASU’s Sustainability and Happiness Research Laboratory (the Happy Lab). He works collaboratively on the ground in neighbourhoods in the USA, Mexico, South America and the EU, promoting opportunities for happiness that also support the move towards a sustainable future. Scott develops new approaches by drawing on existing knowledge from sustainable urban and neighbourhood development, quantitative and qualitative research methods and theoretical models regarding quality of life, community well-being, subjective well-being (happiness) and biological underpinnings.

She holds a B.S. in Kinesiology, M.Ed. in Exercise Science from Springfield College, and a Ph.D. in Community Resources & Development from Arizona State University. Her ten years of teaching health and physical education in public schools guides her work to expand on the power of community on health and happiness. Guided by a social-ecological framework, her research investigates how individual, environmental, and policy factors affect behavior, and how they collectively impact health and well-being.
Melanie Weaver has a doctorate in Justice Studies from the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University.

When the current anti-trafficking movement began to emerge, she engaged in art activism, drawing from personal lived experience to raise awareness about Commercial Sexual Exploitation in the United States. While working on her doctorate, she pursued research with long-term survivors, identifying them as a distinct population with unique insights into the decades after exiting. Her research addresses the need for ongoing, sustainable support systems focused on the health and wellbeing of long-term survivors.
