Crawford School Dialogue:
Public Policy Challenges 2010
Tuesday 16 February, 2010
Climate Change, Public Sector Reform, and Murray-Darling Basin Reform are three critical public policy concerns in 2010, and how should the Australian government respond to these? How does the government manage ‘uncertainty’ and handle ‘public expectations’? How do government agencies collaborate?
Crawford School’s experts Frank Jotzo, Stephen Howes, Bruce Chapman, Janine O’Flynn, Quentin Grafton and Carolyn Hendriks addressed these challenging issues.
The Crawford School Dialogue is a new initiative of Crawford School, the vision for the Forum is to bring together the Canberra policy community and to engage in dialogue with policy practitioners.
