This project aims to identify the most workable solutions to the challenge of explaining why new water-related technologies are needed to guarantee the prosperity and health of the Australian community. We expect to understand the key features that drive public trust and acceptance of wastewater monitoring, as well as the purification of recycled water. Both offer important public benefits but carry with them the risk of community backlash. Using leading-edge, economic techniques the project’s outcome will be the development of the first tool for predicting public trust in water technologies. Expected benefits from the project include more affordable and sustainable urban water supplies and protection of community health and wellbeing.

该项目旨在确定最可行的解决方案，以解释为什么需要新的与水有关的技术来保证澳大利亚社区的繁荣和健康。我们希望了解推动公众信任和接受废水监测的关键特征，以及循环水的净化。两者都提供了重要的公共利益，但也带来了社区反弹的风险。利用先进的经济技术，该项目的成果将是开发第一个预测公众对水技术信任的工具。该项目的预期效益包括更实惠和可持续的城市供水，以及保护社区健康和福祉。
