Social implications of market-based policy instruments for carbon and water

该项目旨在分析澳大利亚和东帝汶三个地点的碳和水这两个重要环境市场的社会文化效益和风险。对管理重大环境问题的市场政策的研究尚未充分考虑到社会文化层面。该项目旨在记录当地社区生产者、远方投资者和消费者的观点，并将这些观点纳入改进这些不断扩大的市场的运作和影响的方法。通过对资源和地点进行首次系统比较，该项目有望填补环境学术领域的一个关键空白，并为改善基于市场的环境政策的社会和环境成果的国际战略做出贡献。

This project aims to analyse socio-cultural benefits and risks in the two significant environmental markets of carbon and water across three sites in Australia and Timor-Leste. Research into market-based policies to manage significant environmental issues is yet to fully consider socio-cultural dimensions. This project intends to document local community producers, distant investor and consumer perspectives, and incorporate these perspectives into methods for improving the operation and impact of these expanding markets. By undertaking the first systematic comparison across resources and sites, the project expects to fill a key gap in environmental scholarship and contribute to international strategies to improve social and environmental outcomes in market-based environmental policy.
