Infrastructure 21 - From Incrementalism to Transformational Change
Australia's long-term economic productivity is intimately connected to the quality of its infrastructure base, in transport, water, energy and telecommunications. One of the Federal Government's main economic priorities has been revitalization of the nation's infrastructure base with a new entity, Infrastructure Australia, playing a vital coordinating role.
Enhancing Australia's infrastructure base provides huge challenges, given competing demands for limited infrastracture planning and delivery resources both here and internationally and the need to think about climate change and social inclusion as well as economic productivity. This demands transformational thinking, extending beyond the narrow sectoral frameworks with which we have become accustomed.
Infrastructure 21 is an invitation-only event, to be held in Brisbane on 7th October 2008.
