Program 1: Policy

CRC CARE's Best Practice Policy program is developing new principles, indicators and strategies to support the development of new policy frameworks and a national guidance framework for remediation. The research program is also producing strategies and techniques to effectively and positively engage with communities to manage perceptions surrounding remediation technologies and their application.

The key research areas of this program are:

• Guidance for emergent and priority contaminants
• National guidance framework for Australian remediation
• Classification and ranking of incentives for remediation and reduction of title blight
• Strategies for selecting remediation technologies based on effective community engagement.
