Stakeholder Engagement Overview
2020 saw a healthy level of activity in ACEMS with respect to stakeholder engagement despite the obvious challenges.
The Centre continued to pursue the mutually beneficial collaborations with Partner Organisations, Industry Affiliate Members, research collaborators, program collaborators, citizen scientists, and other end users. ACEMS’ strategic efforts in this regard are realising a range of benefits, including new research collaborations, knowledge creation, knowledge translation, research commercialisation, and research impact. These transdisciplinary and cross-sector collaborations are having a positive impact in each of our collaborative domains, namely, for ‘Healthy People’, ‘Sustainable Environments’, and ‘Prosperous Societies’.
Our valued stakeholders include all ACEMS members as well as our external collaborators from organisations across industry, government, the non-profit, and research sectors.
Our engagement also extends to the public, end-users and other beneficiaries of our research activities, with the aim of maximising the societal benefits of this engagement.
Engagement highlights from 2020 include:
In-kind contributions from POs (x1.99 forecast)
ACEMS teams receiving awards at the Asia-Pacific Spatial Excellence Awards (APSEA)
Joint ACEMS-stakeholder workshops held/co-organised/co-hosted by the Centre
Training workshops and presentations were delivered by ACEMS Members
Industry speakers at ACEMS Retreats
ACEMS Research Collaborators
ACEMS research collaborators range from those with whom ACEMS undertakes one or more collaborative research projects through to those more deeply and broadly engaged via research and other engagement mechanisms, either as Industry Affiliate Members in our Industry Affiliate Program (IAP) or official Partner Organisations who benefit from a more strategic and longer-term collaboration.
During 2020, the Centre’s key collaborators included six Partner Organisations, nine Industry Affiliate Members, and many other government, industry, and non-profit organisations, plus national and international research organisations.
