Funded Activity Summary

Policing Hazardous Waste Disposal. In a specific sense, the research will advance understanding of the nature of environmental law enforcement in the particular area of hazardous waste (that in itself has major implications for the health and wellbeing of humans, ecological systems and nonhuman animals within Australia). More generally, interrogating environmental law enforcement in this manner will provide insight into models of intervention applicable to the further development of climate change strategies, as well as building enforcement capacity and collaborative work practices that are relevant to combating other types of criminal activity (e.g., terrorism, transnational organised crime).
