Australia-Indonesia Megatrends Foresighting Report: Agriculture and Food
<div>For the Agriculture and Food Cluster a joint Indonesian-Australian researcher meeting, as had been convened for other Clusters, was not possible. Instead, the project team engaged researchers separately in Australia and Indonesia. Following a Cluster planning meeting at the University of Sydney on 27th November 2014, individual telephone interviews were carried out with five members from the University of Sydney, the Australian National University and the Department of Agriculture. In Indonesia, a workshop was held on 23rd December 2014 with six members from IPB, ITB, ITS and UNAIR. The results of these consultations were aggregated into shared issues, drivers and megashocks. </div
AIC Foresighting Final Report Lessons.pdf
<p>The Australia-Indonesia Centre is collaboratively
researching solutions to shared national challenges in four Clusters:Â </p>
<p>* Energy<br>* Infrastructure<br>* Agriculture and Food<br>* Health</p>
<p>In 2015 a Cluster Investment Plan (CLIP) was developed for
each Cluster. This was undertaken through planning workshops held in Australia
and Indonesia. In November 2014, CSIRO was contracted by the AIC to assist with
the Cluster planning process by applying its ‘foresighting’ method, which
analysed key trends in each theme towards 2030 and beyond. The over-arching
goal was ‘to support the development of CLIPs which focus on priority research
areas of shared interest between Australia and Indonesia, and to promote
integration, synergy and learning amongst the Cluster teams’.</p>
<p>The objectives of the Foresighting Project were:</p>
<p>1. For each Cluster, analyse megatrends and megashocks with
shared relevance for Australia and Indonesia to support the development of each
CLIP;<br>2. Develop exploratory scenarios with AIC partners of
Australian and Indonesian regional development to identify and integrate
research priorities within and between Clusters;<br>3. Test and apply the DFAT-CSIRO Research for Development
Alliance method to assess the learning and integration achieved amongst AIC
researchers as a result of the foresighting.</p><p></p
