This project aims to investigate what explains variations on individual's turnout rates by analysing the strategies employed by candidates and parties to mobilise their supporters and demobilise their detractors. The project will compare the mobilisation and demobilisation strategies of the parties and candidates in Spain, Mexico and India. Expected outcomes include an improved understanding of the demobilised, the re-affirmed abstainers and the activated voters, which are under-studied. The findings will enhance understanding of motivations of those citizens, a topic of growing scholarly interest, and also inform Australian policy makers seeking to enhance the design of their governance interventions.Read moreRead less

There is a pressing need to develop service user engagement practice in Australian aged care at the individual, service and policy levels. This is highlighted by emerging care models centred on the service user and a significant projected increase in people using aged care services.

The aim of this project is to develop and implement an engagement framework to investigate service user engagement in Australian aged care. Findings will be used to develop resources for practice improvement.Read moreRead less
