University of Adelaide

Status:
Active

Start date:
November 2020

Project summary description:
The project explores community responses, resistance to and social acceptance of a range of fuels. The accuracy and efficacy of relevant communication strategies (by government, commercial and civil society) is a key aspect of this project, as any social licence to operate may be influenced by a wide range of ‘truths’, perceived environmental risks and trade-offs. Understanding the critical dynamic between information, communication, and community and social acceptance of future fuels is an important research matter.
