It will have a particular focus on Research, Innovation and Practice issues relevant to settlements and infrastructure, and will enable participants to discover the broad range of climate change adaptation research being carried out in Australia.

  2. Coastal Planning, Management and Communities
  3. Urban and Regional Infrastructure (Water, Transport, Energy)
  4. Urban and Regional Planning, Coastal and Urban Governance
