ImpactsThe research undertaken by our researchers is making a difference At the local regional national and global levels our research generates insights that help to address issues of social significance inform policy and decision making and support people communities and the natural environment

Research Impact is defined as the demonstrable contribution that research makes to the economy society culture national security public policy or services health the environment or quality of life beyond contributions to academia

Examples

bull Since 2017 ILWS researchers have been involved in a series of social research projects funded by the NSW Department of Primary Industries through its Shark Management Strategy which have looked at public perception and acceptance of shark harm mitigation strategies Harm from sharks is relatively rare but fear of sharks is widespread and has a range of important consequences From their studies the researchers (led by Associate Professor Peter Simmons) found that the community had a clear preference for strategies that are less invasive to sharks and other marine life Recent surveys have showed that the more invasive a strategy is the lower the community support The results of their studies were presented at a National Shark Bite Mitigation Measure Workshop in Adelaide February 2020 which included shark management policy leaders from NSW Queensland Western Australia and South Australia where shark management has been a contentious public issue in recent years as well as Surf Life Saving Taronga Zoorsquos Shark Management File the Federal Government and researchers from five universities Authorities responsible for shark management policy are recognising the importance of understanding and addressing community perceptions Future policy will increasingly be informed by social research as well as marine environment and technology research and involve targeted communication to ocean users

bull On September 7 the Asian Development Bank with support from ILWS University of South Australia and National University of Laos released its new Asian Development Bank (ADB) fish passage strategy for LaoPDR The plan incorporates many aspects of the Institute-led Fish Passage project a major collaborative research project funded by ACIAR and USAID including the decision support tool developed by UniSA The strategy concludes with a statement of how fish passage is relevant to poverty reduction strategies listed in the ADB 2030 strategy and is seen as an excellent example of impact with donor agencies On the back of this work the ADB have agreed to fund a $US500K fish ladder at That Luang Marsh north of Vientiane ACIARrsquos Ann Fleming Research Manager (Fisheries) said the strategy was ldquoan excellent example of research translation leading into wide-scale impacts for communitiesrdquo New fishway to be built in Lao PDR Accordingly researchers involved in the major Fish Passage project in Lao PDR and Myanmar are partnering with the Lao Department of Irrigation and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to build the new fishway with funding from the Netherlands Support to Food and Nutritional Security funds One of the important first steps in building a fishway suitable for local conditions and local fish is the concept design The design report for the new fishway was published late 2020 The report follows a Fish Passage Masterclass held at Dondok Campus in Vientiane in December 2020 which provided an overview of all aspects of designing fishways with a focus on developing a concept design and cost estimate for a fishway at Houay Mak Hiew The Masterclass was organised by the National University of Laos (NUoL) and Charles Sturt University (CSU) Australia Participants included staff from the Department of Irrigation (DoI) Provincial Agricultural and Forestry Office (PAFO) District Agricultural and Forestry Office (DAFO) Department of Livestock and Fisheries (DLF) officers as well as representatives and experienced fishers (male and female) of the local community at the proposed site Since then engineers biologists river operators and fishers (NUoL CSU and the masterclass team) worked together to produce a concept design that will pass fish be cost-effective and be easy to operate and maintain While several fishway designs were assessed the vertical slot fishway design was considered the most suitable for Houay Mak Hiew Regulator The next step is for the DoIADB to commission further engineering work and progress to detailed design tender and construction Further steps will include the development of an operation manual training for regulator operators and finally monitoring of the fishway to evaluate that it is passing fish and to provide any recommendations for improvements ldquoThe project is an excellent example of proof of concept research proceeding to practical on-ground solutions which are supported by national governments donors and lending banksrdquo says project team leader Professor Lee Baumgartner ldquoThe long-term benefits of this project will be improved fisheries in the regions upstream and downstream of the regulator It is expected that this will lead to improved livelihoods nutrition and income for people in the regions where the fishery declined after the regulator was builtrdquo

bull A CSU-led national initiative known as Equally Well is a concrete example of how our researchers are ldquomaking a differencerdquo of research impact Equally Well was mentioned 48 times in the Australian Government Productivity Commission Inquiry into Mental Health report released November 17 2020 The report from the two-year inquiry into mental health has recommended all governments implement the actions of the Equally Well National Consensus Statement (developed and curated by Professor Russell Roberts in 2017) to improve physical health and life expectancy of people with mental illness The Productivity Commission report estimated that reform of the mental health system would yield $193 billion annually in quality of life and increased economic participation Reducing the gap in life expectancy for people with severe mental illness is highlighted as a priority reform in the reportThe aim of the consensus statement was to help bring together a national cross-sector alliance and using a collective impact approach to focus on improving the physical health of people living with a mental illness Since then the CSU Equally Well project team has led this initiative with more than 90 organisations including all governments 14 professional colleges national peak bodies and non-government service providers lsquosigning-uprsquo and committing to make this issue a priority Since 2017 five research grants supported by the National Mental Health Commission the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services the NSW Mental Health Commission Neami National Qld Dept of Health and NSW Department of Health have been securedndash a total of $1182114 (of which $849114 has gone to CSU)
