I am currently developing an Australian Research Council 'Linkage' project to investigate various sustainable development mechanisms (emissions trading, payment for ecosystem services, certification), and work with participants and stakeholders to develop 'universal' standards for 'good' governance. Are you interested? If you are, your institution needs to dedicate funds, which are then matched, dollar for dollar, by the Australian Government. There is a 40% success rate with such grant applications. If you are working in standards development, follow sustainable development and market mechanisms, and have an interest in global governance you might be an ideal partner. Below, I attach a previous project, to give you an idea of the kind of work myself and myself team does. Come and join us!
