Summary
Scenario testing for sustainable Australian agricultural landscapes to 2050. This project aims to develop and apply the first systems-based projective spatial methodology for evaluating and communicating Australian agricultural landscape scenarios to 2050. Its conceptual framework combines the synergistic approaches of geodesign, scenario testing and projective design to generate empirically-informed scenarios to spatialise agriculture's national environmental, social, economic, demographic and ....Scenario testing for sustainable Australian agricultural landscapes to 2050. This project aims to develop and apply the first systems-based projective spatial methodology for evaluating and communicating Australian agricultural landscape scenarios to 2050. Its conceptual framework combines the synergistic approaches of geodesign, scenario testing and projective design to generate empirically-informed scenarios to spatialise agriculture's national environmental, social, economic, demographic and competing land-use challenges. Benefits and outcomes will support robust decision-making processes to reduce risk and contribute to more intergenerationally sustainable Australian agricultural practices, industries, communities and landscapes.Read moreRead less
Equity and diversity in the Australian architecture profession: women, work, and leadership. This project will develop strategies to maximize women's participation in architecture, improving human resource practices within architectural firms and developing a diversity policy for the national professional association. Together these outcomes will increase women's representation within architecture, and help all architects achieve a greater work life balance with its concomitant effects of improv ....Equity and diversity in the Australian architecture profession: women, work, and leadership. This project will develop strategies to maximize women's participation in architecture, improving human resource practices within architectural firms and developing a diversity policy for the national professional association. Together these outcomes will increase women's representation within architecture, and help all architects achieve a greater work life balance with its concomitant effects of improving individual health, wellbeing and national productivity. Increasing the visibility and recognition of female architects will directly support innovative practice in architecture, which will advantage all attempts to create socially and ecologically sustainable built environments in Australia.Read moreRead less
