Crawford School PhD Conference 2016

Global business background

Tuesday 22 November 2016,
9.15 - 5pm
Crawford School of Public Policy

The 2016 Crawford PhD conference focuses on the increasingly global nature of public policy challenges and the need for solutions to respond creatively and intelligently to this changing dynamic.

Climate change, growing economic and social inequalities, security threats, the movement of people, pandemics, and other major policy issues that the world faces all require understanding from a global perspective. This knowledge can help tailor institutional and policy reform at the global, regional, national, and local levels. In short, these global challenges require smart solutions.
