BC Wine Territory Identity <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n (University of British Columbia Library, 2018)<\/span> The Okanagan campus of the University of British Columbia (UBC) and KEDGE Business School, Bordeaux, have been working with the British Columbia wine industry to develop its sense of identity for a number of years. More recently, the campus partnered with the Innovation School at the Glasgow School of Art (GSA) to create and deliver participatory workshops in November 2017, which included a full-day workshop on identity as part of the 2018 Wine Leaders Forum. These workshops stimulated thinking about aspects of identity, including terroir, authenticity, expression, and the overall narrative presented by the BC wine territory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n This report outlines the campus\u2019 activities to date, introduces the idea of identity, discusses its importance for wine regions, analyzes findings, recommends actions for wineries, growers, industry organizations and regional associations, and concludes with UBCO\u2019s commitment. It complements GSA\u2019s (2018) report of the workshops.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n (Description Source: University of British Columbia Library<\/a>) Author<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Kim Buschert<\/strong> is a librarian at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan Campus, and is the liaison to the Faculty of Management.
