Summary
Casual Fertility Consequences: The Role of Non-Standard Employment (NSE). This project aims to investigate the role of temporary, casual, part-time paid work (non-standard employment) on Australians’ fertility behaviour (childbirth intentions and outcomes). It expects to use high-quality longitudinal data, engage in novel quasi-experiments (policy changes) to identify new causal mechanisms and pathways between employment types and fertility. Expected outcomes include a novel interdisciplinary th ....Casual Fertility Consequences: The Role of Non-Standard Employment (NSE). This project aims to investigate the role of temporary, casual, part-time paid work (non-standard employment) on Australians’ fertility behaviour (childbirth intentions and outcomes). It expects to use high-quality longitudinal data, engage in novel quasi-experiments (policy changes) to identify new causal mechanisms and pathways between employment types and fertility. Expected outcomes include a novel interdisciplinary theoretical framework, most up-to-date empirical evidence on this topic in Australia, high-quality research outputs and training, and clear work and family policy recommendations. This should significantly benefit families, communities, governments and organisations to lift productivity. Read moreRead less

HEALTHY AGEING - PREVENTION AND INTERVENTION (HA-PI) NETWORK:
A RESEARCH NETWORK PROPOSAL ON THE BIOLOGICAL, SOCIAL AND PRIMARY CARE DYNAMICS OF AGEING
. Australian ageing research is dispersed across bioscience, social science and primary care organisations. Advances in healthy, productive ageing require connection of these three vital links. Bioscience and social science groupings are engaged in generating the evidence that primary care experts need to promote healthy ageing. Primary ....HEALTHY AGEING - PREVENTION AND INTERVENTION (HA-PI) NETWORK:
A RESEARCH NETWORK PROPOSAL ON THE BIOLOGICAL, SOCIAL AND PRIMARY CARE DYNAMICS OF AGEING
. Australian ageing research is dispersed across bioscience, social science and primary care organisations. Advances in healthy, productive ageing require connection of these three vital links. Bioscience and social science groupings are engaged in generating the evidence that primary care experts need to promote healthy ageing. Primary care experts also need to act as ?direction finders? for research on ageing so that the right questions are addressed. All these groups are relatively under-funded and poorly connected. The HA-PI Network will connect and support them to over-come barriers to the implementation of existing research and to create innovations for the future.Read moreRead less

Summary
Revitalising Country: The Lurujarri and Tjilbruke Walking Trails. This project aims to expand Australian tourism to include more Indigenous walking trails. With two Indigenous partner communities, the project expects to generate new knowledge for intergenerational knowledge transfer, reciprocal care, and tourism research using Indigenous theory and methods. Expected outcomes include a national trail map, a walking trail template, a proposal for a new trail with local councils, a conference of In ....Revitalising Country: The Lurujarri and Tjilbruke Walking Trails. This project aims to expand Australian tourism to include more Indigenous walking trails. With two Indigenous partner communities, the project expects to generate new knowledge for intergenerational knowledge transfer, reciprocal care, and tourism research using Indigenous theory and methods. Expected outcomes include a national trail map, a walking trail template, a proposal for a new trail with local councils, a conference of Indigenous trail leaders, academic articles, and a monograph. This should provide significant benefits to Indigenous communities, with revitalised knowledge of Country, business opportunities and the development of a new Australian tourism product.Read moreRead less
