You are also welcome to use your allotted time creatively, e.g. you could lead us through an activity to demonstrate your research.

Environmental Research Event 2009
10-13 May Noosa North Shore Resort
Water, Energy, Climate Change and Society: Putting the Pieces Together
We can no longer afford to take a silo approach to environmental issues. Beyond the safety of our own specialties, the debates surrounding water, energy and climate change are inextricably linked. So how can we develop as specialist researchers while remaining critically aware of and connected to the other pieces in the puzzle? ERE 2009 will bring together research students, senior academics, industry experts and government representatives from a diverse range of backgrounds to discuss the challenges of environmental research in an increasingly complex world.We can no longer afford to take a silo approach to environmental issues.

History
The Environment Research Event (ERE) began 12 years ago at the University of Queensland, as a means for postgraduate students to present their research to fellow students, senior academics and industry partners in a relaxed environment. In 1997 this research event went national and has since evolved to incorporate international delegates. ERE provides researchers and environmental professionals a unique opportunity for networking, and to observe and discuss the development of research in the environmental, engineering, economic and social sciences fields.
