Summary
Evacuations in International Law: Disasters, Conflict & Humanitarian Crises. As contemporary crises intersect and compound, increasing numbers of people are seeking to escape the impacts of disasters, climate change, conflict and other emergencies. In such contexts, evacuations can be a life-saving tool to move people away from imminent harm. But they can also displace people, often for prolonged periods, and at great social, economic and personal cost.

As contemporary crises intersect and compound, increasing numbers of people are seeking to escape the impacts of disasters, climate change, conflict and other emergencies. In such contexts, evacuations can be a life-saving tool to move people away from imminent harm. But they can also displace people, often for prolonged periods, and at great social, economic and personal cost. This timely and innovative program will transform how we conceive of, implement and evaluate evacuations as a form of rescue in international law and practice. This new field of scholarly inquiry will generate transformative legal and policy reform to safeguard the rights of evacuees, thereby enhancing the protection of millions of people worldwide.Read moreRead less

The project addresses an urgent national and global challenge to policy and practice: the escalating risk of bushfire disasters. It aims to develop adaptation pathways so Australian communities can co-exist safely and sustainably with intrinsically flammable landscapes, through an innovative integration of historical, social, economic, and biophysical lines of research. In collaboration with local councils, fire-management agencies, Aboriginal communities contributing traditional knowledge, and world-leading fire scientists, it is expected to deliver benefit through insights into the drivers of fire disaster, concrete outcomes such as optimal preventive and mitigation strategies, and greatly improved community understanding and involvement.Read moreRead less

Summary
Restore or protect: could habitat restoration ever be a better investment than habitat protection for biodiversity and ecosystem service conservation? Australia's multi-billion dollar national investment programs in nature conservation vacillate between two grand paradigms - prevention and cure. This project will resolve this contest by developing the first rigorous quantitative framework for deciding whether protecting habitat is better than restoring habitat.
