Development of an international knowledgebase on urban transport policy instruments. This project will produce an on-line knowledgebase on urban transport policy instruments providing an understanding of the performance of such instruments from international experience. It will allow assessment of given instruments in different contexts, and identify opportunities for integration of policy instruments. It will assist decision-makers and interest groups to understand the role and potential of dif ....Development of an international knowledgebase on urban transport policy instruments. This project will produce an on-line knowledgebase on urban transport policy instruments providing an understanding of the performance of such instruments from international experience. It will allow assessment of given instruments in different contexts, and identify opportunities for integration of policy instruments. It will assist decision-makers and interest groups to understand the role and potential of different measures and provide a key source for transport researchers and educators. It will significantly assist achievement of urban transport policy objectives of reduced congestion; enhanced environment; greater safety; improved public health; better access; fairer opportunities; improved quality of life and increased sustainability.Read moreRead less
The Australian-Netherlands project on work and stress research. Rapid changes in the nature of work globally require critical surveillance for effects on worker well-being and productivity. Occupational health policy trends in Australia and The Netherlands support continuous monitoring of the work environment. This project therefore provides a timely opportunity structure for intellectual exchange and capacity building for Australian and Dutch work and organisational psychologists, specifically ....The Australian-Netherlands project on work and stress research. Rapid changes in the nature of work globally require critical surveillance for effects on worker well-being and productivity. Occupational health policy trends in Australia and The Netherlands support continuous monitoring of the work environment. This project therefore provides a timely opportunity structure for intellectual exchange and capacity building for Australian and Dutch work and organisational psychologists, specifically in work stress and unemployment research. Highly experienced and emerging researchers together will develop and implement projects transnationally. Outcomes will include: joint doctoral-post doctoral supervision; joint publications and grants; advanced knowledge and applications, with international policy implications for improving working life and productivity.Read moreRead less
