The public policy research group covers all areas of public policy, from the local, state, national and international level. We look at the past, present and future of policy and the ways in which institutions respond in policies areas such as employment, public health, environmental management, agriculture and financial governance. Public policy is an instrument for responding to the big questions and issues facing the globe and we do so by engaging with government, industry, community organisations and a network of international researchers.
Expertise: International political economy, labour market economics, employment output, socialised investment
