Project Abstract | The proposed research will develop a framework to support the preparation and monitoring of an engagement strategy to effectively communicate risk-based environmental regulation. The research will begin by identifying the guiding principles of an effective communication strategy for risk-based regulation. This will draw on international best practice across all areas of risk-based regulation. The research will provide guidelines and metrics to support those charged with implementing and monitoring an engagement strategy, supporting effective allocation of limited resources. All guidelines and recommendations will be tested through a pilot study that assesses the effectiveness of the National Inspection Plan for Domestic Waste Water Treatment Systems (DWWTS) engagement strategy. |
