Australian water research facility: progress presentations

The Australian Water Research Facility (AWRF) is a research program funded by AusAID for water and development issues in the Asia Pacific region.
AWRF aims to support the impact and effectiveness of Australia's aid program by contributing research in the water sector with particular focus on East Timor and the Solomon Islands.

The research takes a whole-of-water-cycle approach and examines the integrated nature of social, environmental and economic interactions within a catchment.
This site holds three presentations given to AusAID on the research undertaken to date under the AWRF, including:

- A conceptual framework for inter-disciplinary research into water resource management
- Catchment risk assessment for the Solomon Islands
- Global indicators linking water and poverty
