Publication 2018 QLD aviation network.png

Developing a Queensland Aviation Network Strategy

This research paper is a culmination of almost three years of feedback and refinement from a project commissioned by the Aviation Innovation Network, and conducted in collaboration with Griffith University. Findings revealed that a formal network-level approach to generate whole-of-state objectives for aviation is plausible for Queensland to pursue.

A paper led by one of my (graduated) PhD students, that builds on the knowledge created in her PhD to provide pragmatic strategies to improve influence for (typically) poorly-resourced policy advocates in the nutrition policy space.
