Collaboration as a solution to wicked public policy problems: the example of regional environmental and natural resources policy in Australia

该项目通过评估通过创新合作模式改善澳大利亚土地和水资源管理的两个主要国家项目，为水资源国家优先事项做出贡献。它审查了政府和非政府组织利益攸关方之间的新合作，以及建立许多区域机构，是否有可能取得比以前的监管模式更好的结果。该项目将通过分析新方案方法的优点和局限性来改进公共政策模型。将评估国家、州和区域各级的问题和前景，包括不同形式的合作如何与有效和负责任的体制安排相联系。

This project contributes to the water national priority by assessing two major national programs to improve Australia's land and water management through innovative collaboration models. It examines whether new collaborations between governments and NGO stakeholders, together with the creation of numerous regional bodies, are likely to achieve better outcomes than the previous regulatory models. The project will enhance public policy models through analysis of the strengths and limitations of the new program approach. Problems and prospects at the national, state and regional levels will be assessed including how different forms of collaboration are linked to effective and accountable institutional arrangements.
