The Valuing Sustainability Future Science Platform (VS FSP) is a substantial new 5-year investment in cutting edge research by CSIRO that will recruit several post-docs who will be embedded in diverse inter-disciplinary research teams. The VS FSP aims to co-produce future pathways, measures and indicators to underpin sustainable innovation and prosperity for current and future industries and communities.
Within the VS FSP, the ‘resilience + sustainability of socio-ecological networks’ project aims to develop new methods, tools and indicators to evaluate cross-scale relationships between resilience to different types of system shocks and social and environmental dimensions of sustainability, building from CSIRO’s emerging capability in socio-ecological system modelling. These activities will develop tools and measures to help industry, consumers and policy makers to better understand and plan for the effects of shocks (such as COVID-19, economic disruptions or climate extremes) on sustainability outcomes in marine and terrestrial food production sectors, and in associated communities.
