Investigating the effects of industry disruption and best practice to transition communities into the future. ARC Linkage Project Grant. RT=inform ≠endorsement
Who shapes the future of regions? Too often we subscribe to the view leaders and politicians determine outcomes, but the decisions of individual workers are pivotal also. Our recent paper explores this neglected driver of change @regstud@sallyhardy https://t.co/xw7hfoxGlB
Sharing research with government and industry is incredibly important and marked a significant milestone in the @fwfc_arc project on transitions in the face of #economicrestructuring

New research shows that poor leadership during the closure of Australia's automotive industry led to an erosion of trust in government leaders in affected communities. #leadership#automotiveindustry

🚨My new paper @economyandspace ‘Punish, Protect or Redirect’: on policies aimed at ’000s workers who lost jobs after Australia’s #AutoIndustry ended… on what did & didn’t work (hint: the latter inc. forcing people onto #workfare) https://t.co/skJJgkQWAE @AustSoc@ACU_IHSS

Lewis Dijkstra on demographics. Apparently my generation will start disappearing .. I sincerely hope not too quickly! More seriously, migration will not save shrinking regions. Thanks Lewis! 😂 #CohesionPolicy@RSAEurope@regstud@DanielaSCarl

Second homes & short rental is the elephant in the room when it comes to empty homes @RSAEurope@SallyJHardy
Look where Australia’s ‘1 million empty homes’ are and why they're vacant – they're not a simple solution to housing need https://t.co/wyGK5OE9rv via @ConversationEDU
There is an important issue here - Australia has been distracted from the real issues: building up the supply of affordable housing, having a decent rental sector & meeting pressing needs
