This Friday 5 March Dr. Sander Meijerink from Radboud University Nijmegen in The Netherlands will share his insights into how individuals and collectives shape water policy reform. Giving examples from 15 different case studies, he will describe how policy ‘entrepreneurs’ work strategically to build coalitions and manipulate decision making forums in order to guide water policy into their desired direction.
Learning from others to provide a ‘how to’ guide for aspiring water policy makers is a principal focus of Dr Meijerink’s book Water Policy Entrepreneurs: A Research Companion to Water Transitions around the Globe’.
Human Ecology Forum, Friday March 5th between 10am and 12 noon in Room 101 (Old Library) of the Forestry Building (No. 48), The Australian National University
