Shaping Australia’s Resilience: Policy development for uncertain futures. A21 Workshop, 19 Feb 2010 Steve Dovers, Fenner School of Environment and Society, ANU

Central point: If “resilience thinking” is to inform policy development and implementation, then its users and promoters must: -- draw on existing knowledge from public policy, public administration, institutional theory and design, law, history, etc, and… -- avoid “ortism” (ie. someone oughta…), and start to explore the detail of and recommend structures and processes. Not that they don’t at all, but not enough. Three ideas from three sources…. 2Dovers A21 Resilience 2/2010

1. Resilience & institutions: Resilience – and socio-ecological systems, vulnerability-adaptation studies, adaptive management (a bit better), etc do not characterise what resilience means in institutional terms. For example, further developing (i) Resistance and maintenance, (ii) Change at the margins, (iii) Openness and adaptability. Handmer & Dovers (2009) (orig 1996) A typology of resilience: rethinking institutions for sustainable development. In: Schipper & Burton, The Earthscan reader on adaptation to climate change. 3Dovers A21 Resilience 2/2010

2. Resilience and other ideas Avoiding group think, self-referencing, and borrowing only of friendly/cognate ideas. Eg. “resilience thinking” and “optimisation for conservation” have largely evolved separately, and are often seen as conflictual, but we argue may be complementary – one strategic, one operational. Fischer et al (2009) Integrating resilience thinking and optimisation for conservation. Trends in Ecology and Evolution. 4Dovers A21 Resilience 2/2010

3. Entering foreign territory - implementation Too much resilience, adaptation, socio-ecological systems, etc literature and policy discussion: -- states ends and aspirations, but not the means of getting there (policy, institutional and administrative structures and processes). -- does not draw on relevant research and practice in NRM, disasters, public policy, sustainable development, etc. Dovers & Hezri (in press 2010) Institutions and policy processes: the means to the ends of adaptation. WIRES Climate Change. 5Dovers A21 Resilience 2/2010
