Turning shared priorities into coordinated research, to target knowledge gaps.
9
Research programs coordinated across WABSI's partner network
Good research starts with the right question.
WABSI works with end users to identify where better knowledge could make a difference, then brings researchers and partners together around those priorities.
We help coordinate collaborative research that connects expertise, avoids duplication and focuses effort on the knowledge gaps that matter most to decision makers.
This approach creates opportunities for research to be delivered at a scale and across disciplines that individual projects or organisations may not be able to achieve alone.
Research works harder when it is connected.
Targeting the gaps that matter
Research investment can have greater impact when it responds to clearly identified knowledge needs and connects directly to decisions being made about biodiversity.
Building capability through collaboration
Coordinated programs bring researchers, end users and partners together over time, building shared capability, relationships and knowledge that can continue beyond individual projects.
Coordinating research around the challenges ahead
WABSI coordinates research around priorities identified through consultation with end users and shaped by emerging environmental, economic and social challenges.
Connecting the right people to the right questions.
WABSI brings together end users, researchers and partners to define the research challenge, identify the expertise required and develop collaborative approaches to delivery.
We help create the connections, partnerships and frameworks needed to move from a recognised knowledge gap to research that can generate practical value.
The focus is not simply on producing more research. It is on coordinating the right research, with the right partners, around the decisions that matter.
Coordination sits within a wider approach.
