Seminar

The University of Queensland (UQ) and the University of Indonesia (UI) are delighted to present the first in a regular series of webinars as part of the UQ-UI Bilateral Research Forum.

Join us for this Lowy Institute webinar with Ben Bland in conversation with the UQ Centre for Policy Futures own Dr Greta Nabbs-Keller. This webinar takes a look at how Joko Widodo rose from a riverside shack to the top of Indonesian politics on a wave of hope for change, and his struggle to deliver the reforms that Indonesia desperately needs in the midst of crises.

Join us for a three-part webinar training series about getting research into policy and practice.

Learn how to produce policy-relevant research findings and recommendations by developing a scholarly-based understanding of public policy.

This summer the Great Barrier Reef suffered its third serious bleaching event in five years, with climate change threatening to destroy one of nature’s most stunning wonders. The Great Barrier Reef is not only a treasure of biodiversity but an icon of Australia and the lifeblood of North Queensland tourism. What do these massive bleaching events mean for those whose livelihoods rely on tourism? What could we do to preserve and protect the Reef from climate change? Marian Wilkinson will host a conversation with UQ experts Dr Selina Ward and Dr Pedro Fidelman to discuss the economic, political and scientific questions that will determine the future of the Reef and those on land who depend on it.
