Who We Are
The Goyder Institute for Water Research is a research alliance of the South Australian Government through the Department for Environment and Water, CSIRO, Flinders
University, the University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia.
We draw on teams of researchers and experts from within these partner organisations assembling multi-organisational, multi-disciplinary teams.
What We Do
The Institute facilitates the collaboration of governments, industries, and leading researchers to identify, develop and adopt sustainable, innovative and integrated solutions for complex water management challenges.
The Institute looks at all water types (surface water, groundwater, fresh, coastal, marine), users (urban, primary producers, mining, manufacturing, transport, environment) and disciplines (biophysical, mathematics, social, economic, technology, law, governance etc).
How We Do It
The Goyder Institute provides a collaborative “one-stop-shop” to identify, develop and adopt water solutions for complex water management challenges.
Our projects involve multiple partners and include long-term, research projects as well as short-term, responsive, strategic ones. We focus on large and strategic opportunities that our partners individually would not have otherwise pursued or where collaboration is advantageous.
