The Community Sustainability Project is made up of many separate
yet interconnected projects, situated in locations around Australia and
across the world.
The research of these site-based projects
is conducted
by academic researchers and community-based researchers,
in collaboration with government and non-government agencies.
This network of collaborating research and researchers is coordinated
through the Globalism Institute, with different Project Managers
responsible for overseeing the administrative aspects of all projects
on three levels: global, national and local. The Global Project
Manager has responsibility for overseeing the administration of
all national initiatives. National Project Managers are responsible
for coordinating all activities of sites within a country. Research
Site Managers are responsible for coordinating all activities at
a given location within a country. Many researchers work across
both the national and the local.
All this involves working collaboratively with researchers within
and allied with the Globalism Institute (Core Researchers), academics
from universities at the international sites, government representatives,
non-government agencies, community researchers and community members
(Collaborating Researchers). For information on any given site,
please contact the Research Site Manager, or if one is not named, the
National Project Manager for that country. Queries about all other
sites should be directed to the Global Project Manager.
