The International Political Thought of Women’s Regional Networks . The political ideas of Asia Pacific women’s regional networks remain under-examined and worse, misunderstood as narrowly about ‘women’s issues’.

The political ideas of Asia Pacific women’s regional networks remain under-examined and worse, misunderstood as narrowly about ‘women’s issues’. By combining feminist methodologies to archival research, network mapping and interviews, this project aims to generate new knowledge on how women’s regional networks understand global crises and the transformative solutions to address them. Expected outcomes include an historicised understanding of the intellectual contributions of women from the most crisis-affected region in the world. It should benefit Australian policymakers and practitioners seeking to partner with these networks in collectively responding to crises on multiple fronts – from COVID-19 to conflicts and climate change.Read moreRead less
Village democracy in Southeast Asia and the Pacific.

This project aims to understand variation in village politics in Indonesia, the Philippines and Papua New Guinea, and the effects of that variation on development outcomes, democratic participation, and gender equity. It will generate new knowledge on how micro-level power structures affect citizens’ experience of government. Expected outcomes include a new framework for understanding how community power structures shape and constrain government action. Benefits will include strengthening Australia’s position as a world leader in Asian and Pacific studies, generating a new framework for understanding the effects of village political dynamics, and guidance for Australian and other policy makers planning grassroots development interventions.Read moreRead less

Awareness of the problem has grown exponentially, but solutions to it have not.
