[ANU Pacific.Institute] Potential ANU MoU with SPREP - seeking information

[Katherine Daniell]

> Dear All,
>
> Following discussions with SPREP (http://www.sprep.org/) that were
> mentioned at the last Pacific Institute meeting briefly, I wanted to follow
> up on within the ANU on an MOU with SPREP.   Ideally (but not essentially),
> SPREP would normally include a very simple Workplan for collaborative
> activities that would fall under the MOU – as long as we have something
> firm for acting on over the next 3 years.
>
>
> SPREP proposes that the scope for future collaboration can include (but
> not be limited to):
>
>    - Research activities in the region by university staff and students –
>    eg, in areas of environmental and socio-ecological studies, science,
>    policy, governance, ….
>    - Placements for researchers and students at SPREP, or attached to
>    projects.
>    - Joint Supervisor or Adviser roles on post-graduate student projects
>    - Training workshops or capacity building activities for Pacific
>    island nationals (students, government staff, civil society)
>    - Others ….?
>
>
>  To help with the development of this MOU, could you please email

>  rachel.england at anu.edu.au cc'ed to me (katherine.daniell at anu.edu.au) any
> info - briefly- on:
> 1) if you are or previously have worked with/in SPREP (and what the focus
> was)
> 2) have research or interests or current/upcoming projects that could be
> of interest to SPREP (and what they are)
> 3) have any other opinions on the proposed MOU (what should/shouldn't be
> in it and/or how it might connect to other ANU endeavors in the Pacific)
