Lisa Ward is joined by by Professor Paul Martin to discuss his work and research for UNE’s Australian Centre of Agriculture and Law (AgLaw Centre).
In this episode, Paul speaks about researching and working in a regional university and his work on solving regional, rural and remote issues on social policy and the environment.
Professor Paul Martin has had an extraordinary and expansive wealth of experience throughout his career. From working as an accountant, company secretary, venture capitalist to being a Professor of Law. His diverse background and extensive skills contribute to the success of UNE’s AgLaw Centre, which has gained both a domestic and an international reputation.
Paul is a passionate advocate for change to improve the lives of people in regional, rural and remote areas, with a particular focus on consulting communities to solve issues in rural social policy, land management, natural resources, the environment, and water sharing. He is in the vanguard of Australian AgLaw research and encourages and welcomes research collaborations and HDR students.
You can read more about Paul’s expertise in his book Achieving Biodiversity Protection in Megadiverse Countries: A Comparative Assessment of Australia and Brazil or visit the Australian Centre of Agriculture and Law webpage for more information about the centre and its focus and aims.
