We have a strong background in policy development. Our team has developed biodiversity conservation and land management policies across the conservation, planning and agricultural sectors for State and Commonwealth governments.

Development of lasting and effective policy requires three things:

1. Understanding of legislative frameworks, government processes and the mechanisms for implementation

2. The ability to create, analyse, and compare potential policy options

3. Engagement with recognised experts and meaningful community consultation

Whether you need a complete policy review and revision, or a quick submission to an enquiry or an options paper, we can help to solve your policy challenges by:

• Collaborating with you to find a solution. You probably know the situation better than any consultant, but we can turn your ideas and understanding into sound and effective policy

• Creating policy that fits with your priorities, processes and needs. Our experience in government enables us to write policy that satisfies cabinet, treasury, and other key decision makers

• Drawing on expert input and community engagement. This gives you the best chance at durable and effective policies that meet the community’s needs

• Solving the hard problems. Our wide range of experience and analytical skills allow us to see and compare options that would otherwise be missed

Examples of our policy work are discussed below. Contact us to bring our policy experience to your project.
