In order to better analyse the impact of governance, this paper proposes a set of governance indicators to examine decisions across regional planning institutions and apply this to governance models across Queensland’s regions.

The paper focuses on the link between regional development, social enterprise and digital infrastructure, through analysis of an initiative in Goulburn NSW, in which local entrepreneurs rigged up a wi-fi network, providing free internet access to the public in the city’s main street.

This paper investigates the understanding and value of justice, specifically ‘procedural justice’ (the processes and administrative procedures relating to obtaining fair planning decisions) and its practical application.

This paper emphasises the need for a more ethnographically and empirically informed re-imagining of what it is to live a ‘good life’. It focuses on Broome, a north Australian town in the Kimberley that has a rich polyethnic history.

Using a case study of Melbourne’s peri-urban region, this paper explores the capacity for regional growth under different spatial scenarios.
