Louise Duff recently worked on a social safeguards and resettlement project in Uzbekistan as an intern with Andrew McIntyre of MPC Group. Her role was to conduct focus group interviews with affected women, and her report formed the basis of the Gender Action Plan and the Community Action Plan as well as informing the Resettlement Plan.

Evan Steverson will discuss the Hunter Valley Research Foundation’s (HVRF) most recent Environmental Attitudes research report. Evan will go through The Foundation’s findings on the perceptions people in the Hunter have regarding a range of high profile issues including climate change, nuclear power, the coal industry, recycled water usage, household use of energy and water, and personal environmental behaviours.
