The Australia-Indonesia Comprehensive Economic Partnership (IA-CEPA) came into force in 2020 but foreign investment in Indonesia has consistently failed to meet targets, largely due to concerns about the lack of reliable and just judicial contract enforcement. This project aims to investigate why predictable and fair contract enforcement in Indonesia is so inaccessible, particularly for foreign investors, and, through doctrinal and empirical research, explain the causes of this situation. In partnership with Indonesian courts and lawyers, it also aims to support the development of legal and policy reform proposals that can help resolve Indonesia’s commercial contract enforcement problems and encourage Australian investment there.Read moreRead less
Non-urban water regulation: next generation compliance & enforcement . This project aims to develop the next generation of regulatory technology in non-urban water compliance and enforcement. Effective technologies are needed to make government regulation more efficient, reduce regulatory burdens and improve compliance with complex laws. This project delivers new ways to optimise regulatory technologies that drive innovation, reduce costs and enhance sustainable water use. Expected outcomes incl ....Non-urban water regulation: next generation compliance & enforcement . This project aims to develop the next generation of regulatory technology in non-urban water compliance and enforcement. Effective technologies are needed to make government regulation more efficient, reduce regulatory burdens and improve compliance with complex laws. This project delivers new ways to optimise regulatory technologies that drive innovation, reduce costs and enhance sustainable water use. Expected outcomes include regulatory guidance strategies and training, advances in applied regulatory theory, and innovative technology tools capturing the complexity of water regulation and supporting decision-making. This will provide public resource savings and ensure fairness and effectiveness of water compliance and enforcement.Read moreRead less

Summary
Universal Legal Identity and the Sustainable Development Goals. This project is the first comprehensive study into the risks of exclusion associated with the pursuit of the universal legal identity target enshrined in the Sustainable Development Goals. Through a systematic examination of legal identification initiatives at international and country levels, in Indonesia, Thailand and Cambodia, the project will generate new knowledge on how exclusion in legal identity regimes is produced and who i ....Universal Legal Identity and the Sustainable Development Goals. This project is the first comprehensive study into the risks of exclusion associated with the pursuit of the universal legal identity target enshrined in the Sustainable Development Goals. Through a systematic examination of legal identification initiatives at international and country levels, in Indonesia, Thailand and Cambodia, the project will generate new knowledge on how exclusion in legal identity regimes is produced and who it affects. Outcomes include improved understanding of these risks and practical guidance to address them. Expected benefits include more inclusive state and non-state approaches to legal identity, as well as enhanced protections and development opportunities for marginalised populations in different contexts.Read moreRead less
