Informing policy and management - developing Australia’s capacity to effectively manage landscape processes:
How to inform policy and institutional responses using improved knowledge and understanding of ecological systems and the natural, social and economic drivers that shape landscapes?
How to develop intelligent landscape management principles that guide competent regional planning?
How to build knowledge and improve methods to integrate biodiversity conservation with agriculture and other industry and production systems to deliver improved understanding of the trade offs and cost benefits of different land-use systems, policy choices and management practices?
How to efficiently allocate scarce public funding for landscape-scale biodiversity conservation and management across a range of tenures?
How to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of landscape restoration by improving the understanding and practice?
This theme will include a close collaboration with Land & Water Australia’s Social and Institutional ResearchProgram.
