Policy Integration for Sustainable NRM: Joint Research and Policy Learning

Product Information

This report is the final report of Land & Water Australia research project ANU50.

In Australia and other countries governments and policy communities have created a range of strategies, structures and processes to enable environmenal policy integration.

However, there has been relatively little assessment and evaluation of these initiatives, and especially comparative analysis from a public administration perspective.

The project aimed to undertake a process combining original research and active policy learning across and within Austalian jurisdictions:

To describe and comparatively analyse current practices and structures for environmental policy integration in Australian and overseas jurisdictions; and

To clarify best practice and to define options for improving environmental policy integration capacities.
