Deakin University in Victoria, Australia, launched an online environmental research network for regional Australia in November 2007. The network, created in conjunction with South West Sustainability Partnership is a portal to announce events, contact environmental scientists, find partners to collaborate on projects and increase the investment in sustainability research in the region.

Deakin University’s Sandra McClelland, who is chair of the WGC Sustainability Research Network, says the network increases opportunities for organisations and people in south west Victoria to share their local knowledge about the environment and natural resource management and cooperate to increase research investment in the Region.

The research network will deal with the broad issue of sustainability, research themes that will include but not be limited to: Climate, Socioeconomic, Water, Biodiversity, Land and Landscapes and Estuarine, Coastal & Marine.
