Find out what an Honours/Masters research year involves at the ANU Fenner School of Environment and Society.
This seminar explores how leading cities are accelerating decarbonisation by supporting others. It examines why cities act as influencers, the conditions that enable this, and the broader impacts on urban sustainability transitions.
Buildings are both a major contributor to climate change and highly vulnerable to its impacts. This seminar explores the relationship between buildings and climate change, focusing on energy use, material demand, carbon emissions, and climate-related risks. The talk will discuss how the building sector can contribute to mitigation and adaptation, and highlight pathways towards more sustainable, resilient, and low-carbon-built environments.
Past events

Illegal use of natural resources, such as logging, fishing, mining, and poaching, varies widely in scale, actors, and governance. This presentation explores patterns linking legality and legitimacy, under-researched activities, and governance responses, offering a framework for comparison and analysis.
Environmental monitoring of ecosystems within waterways and riparian corridors is challenging due to constraints on the spatio-temporal coverage that can be reached by extension workers and environmental regulators. Spatial prioritisation may support the planning for allocation of finite resources for monitoring, conservation and rehabilitation.
