Group of Eight response to DIISR consultation paper: Meeting Australia’s research workforce needs

The Group of Eight (Go8) welcomes the Government’s commitment to  developing a comprehensive research workforce strategy. Australia’s research  capacity and the continuing translation of research into policy, products and  services is directly linked to the future productivity of the economy, social  wellbeing, environmental outcomes and the nation’s long-term prosperity.

The Meeting Australia’s research workforce needs consultation paper  provides a useful starting point for discussions on Australia’s research  workforce needs but the Go8 believes that some issues will need to receive more  attention in the final strategy to ensure it is comprehensive and well  targeted.
