12.01.2022 Join Austrade and key Officers from World Bank for their webinar on international development opportunities for #resilient and #inclusive #recovery this Thursday 26 November 2020. International aid-funded projects continue to present significant #opportunities for Australian organisations thanks to our geographic proximity, proven track record, knowledge and understanding of regional needs, and expertise in relevant sectors. These projects not only provide an alternate chann...el to developing markets with the preferred #governance and #transparency but they can also act as a multiplier effect opening avenues to secure other #development projects funded by the UN, bilateral aid agencies and non-government organisations (NGOs).

09.01.2022 Have you ever thought about how #citizenscience could support your projects in #sustainability ? If you have a project idea, you could be eligible for Round 2 of the Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources' Citizen Science Grants. These aim to engage the public in science by offering opportunities to participate, as citizen scientists, in scientific research projects that have a national #impact and include the collection or transformation of data in Australia: https://www.business.gov.au/CSG VCC member CSIRO 's phone application to help track #plasticwaste in our #environment is a fantastic example of a citizen science project: https://blog.csiro.au/earth-challenge-2020/

05.01.2022 Like millions of Australians I watched with horror the #bushfires that ravaged part of the country earlier this year, particularly here in Victoria. I hope my research can protect many homes in fire-stricken areas - Dr Kate Nguyen, RMIT University Dr Nguyen will advance her pioneering research into a #sustainable coating for fire-proofing houses, thanks to a L'Oréal-UNESCO For #WomeninScience fellowship. She has developed a ceramic-like ultra-low carbon emission coating f...or fire-proofing made from industrial waste, often from the coal and mining industry. The new fire-resistant coating is made through a process that emits up to 90% fewer greenhouse gas #emissions than conventional manufacturing approaches. http://ow.ly/xbHY50ChhpH

05.01.2022 This month, Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning announced that Victoria will be getting a new Australian Big Icon: the Victorian Big Battery ! This will help address the intermittent nature of some #renewable energy sources such as #solar and #windenergy as well as lower electricity prices and create more than 85 jobs. http://ow.ly/QwAH50CiiI7
