Australia is in the midst of a water crisis. Available water sources are dwindling. Alternative water sources are key to Australia's sustainable water future. National and international experiences show that while alternative water treatment technologies are available, public acceptance is the most important factor to determining the successful implementation of alternative water schemes. This project will study public acceptance of a range of alternative water schemes in Australia. It will identify barriers to adoption of these alternatives and highlight preferred options by the community. The information needs of Australians will be identified and optimal communication strategies developed.

澳大利亚正处于水危机之中。可用的水源正在减少。替代水源是澳大利亚可持续水资源未来的关键。国家和国际经验表明，虽然存在替代水处理技术，但公众的接受程度是决定成功实施替代水计划的最重要因素。该项目将研究公众对澳大利亚一系列替代供水计划的接受度。它将确定采用这些替代品的障碍，并强调社区的首选方案。将确定澳大利亚人的信息需求，并制定最佳的传播战略。
