The Micropolitics of Deliberation

该项目将展示如何在澳大利亚（和其他国家）的治理体系中设计和使用审议机制，从而提高公民参与澳大利亚民主的质量，并表明在决策中进行公共协商的更有效手段。 该项目将发展关于这些问题的实用专门知识，可在目前广泛关注政府审议协商（特别是自然资源管理）的背景下加以利用。

This project will show how deliberative mechanisms can be designed and employed in Australia's system of governance (and in other countries), thereby improving the quality of citizen participation in Australian democracy and indicating more effective means of public consultation in policy making. The project will develop applied expertise on these issues, which can be put to use in the context of widespread current interest in deliberative consultation in government (especially in natural resource management).
