Symposium - Collaborative Approaches to Natural Resource Management
On Wednesday 25th November, The Centre for Public Policy will be hosting a day-long symposium on the topic of Collaborative approaches to natural resource management.
This event will feature three leading experts including: Associate Professor Edella Schlager (Arizona University), Dr Graham Marshall (University of New England) and Andreas Ernst (Kassel University, Germany).
Environmental issues, from climate change to water catchment management to the devastation wreaked by bushfires, tsunamis and hurricanes, are crucial issues for governments around the world. There is a growing need to find novel ways to deal more effectively with these issues using collaborative approaches. This symposium brings together local and international experts on this topic to describe contemporary research on collaborative approaches to natural resource management, and to discuss ways forward in meeting the governing challenges related to these issues.
This one day event will be of interest to anyone concerned with environmental issues, and specifically to those working in policy development and service delivery, and to public policy researchers.
