The role of a national human rights inquiry: impact on attitudes, research, policy and community development.

该项目将调查澳大利亚人权和平等机会委员会调查的社会影响：偏远和农村教育调查。它将设法确定这些调查在农村、州、国家和国际社会的期望和要求之间进行调解的过程和机制，以及它们对社会变革的贡献程度。这是一个创新项目，首次尝试评估此类调查是否以及如何能够影响该领域的后续研究，并促进国家、州和地方各级的政策变化。

This project will investigate the social impact of a Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission Inquiry in Australia: The Inquiry into Remote and Rural Education. It will seek to identify the processes and mechanisms through which such inquiries mediate between rural, state, national and international community expectations and demands and the extent to which they contribute to social change. This is an innovative project that is attempting for the first time to evaluate whether and how such inquiries have been able to influence subsequent research in the area and contribute to changes in policy at national, state and local levels.
