    Introduction

    Securing Australia's Future By Simon Torok and Paul Holper, 208pp, CSIRO Publishing, 2017 Introduction We can’t know the future, we can’t predict it with great certainty, but we ought to know it’s going to be different, so we may as well think as constructively as we can about how to make it better. – Ian Chubb, launch of SAF08 Delivering Sustainable Urban Mobility, 7 October 2015 An evidence-based approach to informing policy Early in the second decade of the 21st century, the Australian Government recognised that a rapidly evolving global environment presents both opportunities and challenges. The Government engaged the Australian Council of Learned Academies (ACOLA) to under- take a series of detailed interdisciplinary national and international assessments to help guide Australian thinking and policy decisions. ACOLA, an independent organisation that links more than 2000 of Australia’s most eminent academics to support evidence-based interdisciplinary research, harnessed the expertise from across the country’s academies. This included many of Australia’s most influential leaders in the humanities, arts and social sciences (HASS) and science, technol- ogy, engineering and mathematics (STEM) domains. They did extensive research and, based on extensive evidence, compiled a series of well-supported findings designed to encourage Australia to be creative and innovative, adaptable and resilient. The ultimate objective of the work is ‘to secure the country’s future’. The scope of the SAF project was limited by the commission agreed between the gov- ernment of the day and the Office of the Chief Scientist. There was no suggestion that the project would examine every major challenge facing Australia, so, for example, there was no specific report that examined health policy, nor the implications of Australia’s demo- graphic changes such as increased life expectancy.

    Measuring Excellence in Research and Research Training

    Measuring excellence in research and research training Proceedings of a conference held at the Shine Dome, Canberra, on 22 June 2004 The conference, Measuring excellence in research and research training, was organised by the National Academies Forum and was held at the Shine Dome in Canberra on 22 June 2004. The published proceedings, sponsored by the Australian Government Department of Education, Science and Training, are also available online at www.science.org.au/researchexcellence. © Australian Academy of Science, 2005 GPO Box 783 Canberra ACT 2601 www.science.org.au ISBN 0 85847 223 6 Minister’s Foreword The pursuit of excellence has long characterised the Australian research community—excellence in research itself, and excellence in the training of the researchers of the future. But how do we measure excellence or gauge the success of the pursuit? The National Academies Forum (NAF) has contributed greatly to our understanding of the ways in which we might assess the quality and impact of research and research training. These Proceedings, from the NAF symposium on the subject held in June 2004, will continue the debate. In May 2004, the Australian Government announced that a Quality Framework for publicly funded research would be developed. This would measure the quality and social impact of research conducted in universities and publicly funded research agencies. The aim is to create a Framework that will help the Government build on the already outstanding achievements of our world-class innovation system. I have established an Expert Advisory Group to advise me on the development of the Research Quality Framework. Over the coming months, the Department of Education, Science and Training will also consult with stakeholders.
