Australia: Climate Adaptation Flagship: research areas for Flagship Collaboration Fund postgraduate scholarships 2009-2010

Flagship Collaboration Fund

The A$114 million Flagship Collaboration Fund was established to facilitate the involvement of the broader Australian research community in addressing the ambitious goals of the National Research Flagships.

The Flagship Collaboration Fund offers top-up and full scholarships – students should clearly indicate which they are applying for. International students may apply but must be able to show evidence of enrolment in an Australian university.

Climate Adaptation Flagship priorities
The Climate Adaptation Flagship will give preference to the following priority areas but will accept other proposals in line with its wider portfolio for postgraduate scholarships commencing in early 2010:



Priority area and CSIRO supervisor

Behavioural Economics of Climate Adaptation, Dr Stuart Whitten

Optimising Climate Adaptation of Interdependent Urban Built Environments Using System Dynamics, Dr Xiaoming Wang

Networks and their role in governing climate adaptation, Dr Ryan McAllister

Mainstreaming climate adaptation into nature conservation management and planning, Dr Michael Dunlop

Systems analysis of farming enterprises to identify, understand and address limits to adaptation, Dr Mark Howden

To apply for a Climate Adaptation Flagship postgraduate scholarship download the application form at: 2009/595 - Climate Adaptation.

Selection criteria
The main selection criteria for scholarships will be the relevance of the proposed work to the needs of the Flagship and the quality of the student.

When applying for a scholarship, students should indicate to which of the priority areas their proposed research is relevant.

If a student’s research is not directly relevant to any of these areas, their application must clearly state how it is aligned with the work of the Flagship.

Closing date
Applications close at 11.59 pm on 27 November 2009.
