Summary of the research
This research is inspired by a growing international popularity for granting legal personhood to rivers or areas of the environment. What this means is that the river or environmental area is provided with a legal status and rights that can be upheld in a court of law.
The purpose of this research is to gather perspectives on the concepts of establishing legal rights and legal personhood for rivers in particular, especially in Arizona, as a part of a graduate research project. The goal of this research is to gain some understanding of how a community might react to a hypothetical granting of legal rights to rivers.
If you agree to voluntarily participate you will be provided with information and asked about your perspective on the concept of granting legal rights and personhood to rivers or other environmental areas. You will also be asked for reactions to different hypothetical situations, and for some contextual information about yourself. The survey contains 21 questions and is expected to take no more than 15 minutes of your time. No personal identifying information will be collected or used in any publication or sharing of the final research product.
