Achieving Coordinated Landscape-scale Outcomes with Auction Mechanisms This project will apply recent advances in auction theory together with CSIRO's experience of conservation tenders around Australia to develop principles for auction design that are capable of delivering efficient, coordinated outcomes across landscapes 2009-04-09T01:07:33Z 2009-04-23T06:12:52Z This project will apply recent advances in auction theory together with CSIRO's experience of conservation tenders around Australia to develop principles for auction design that are capable of delivering efficient, coordinated outcomes across landscapes. The practicality of these principles will be tested with stakeholders using experimental economics techniques and running interactive workshops which can be used to inform and engage with stakeholders. 1. Develop the next generation of auction (competitive tender) based instruments which deliver superior levels of engagement and coordination in order to achieve landscape scale change. 2. Adapt and further develop combinatorial auction mechanisms, previously applied to other coordination problems, for application in competitive conservation tenders. CSE45
