Our themes
The hub's initial themes focus on the interconnected social, economic and environmental dimensions of decarbonisation.
Our approach
Science and research is critical to Queensland's transition to a decarbonised economy in which communities, industry and our unique environment thrive.
Yet there is often a gap between academics and those making policy decisions or implementing change on the ground.
The Decarb Hub takes a unique approach to bridging that gap. Our core purpose is to translate and share knowledge to support communities, industries, state and local governments, and the environment through rapid emissions reduction and to help identify the opportunities that this change offers.
We do this through:
- Talking with government, industry and community to understand critical challenges and barriers.
- Using evidence and experts to formulate tailored responses that support policy development and on-ground transition.
- Working together to address knowledge gaps and research needs
- Evaluating the outcomes and impact of our work
This approach means we draw on a range of perspectives and knowledge to produce accessible, useable, timely and relevant outputs that avoid duplication and respond to contemporary issues.
