The topic of his address is:  \; Searching for a robust solution to climate and energy policy arrangements: Towards a first-best policy framework  \; Abstract Australia has extensive experience in the development of state of the art policy arrangements and\, from time to time\, has been regarded as a policy development leader. In the case of climate and energy policy\, however\, we are still looking for a robust policy framework that can be expected to withstand the test of time. In this talk\, Mike Young will begin by searching through a sample of the robust approaches that have been tried in an attempt to identify a framework that could be used to bring Australia to the forefront of this extremely challenging policy arena.  \; About the Speaker \;  \; Mike Young holds a Research Chair in Energy\, Water and Environmental Policy at the University of Adelaide and was the Founding Executive Director of its Environment Institute. A fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences in Australia\, and a Distinguished Fellow of the Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society\, he leads the Global Water Partnership&rsquo\;s water-sharing initiative and is now working on options to improve prospects for a profitable transition to a low-carbon economy. In 2013/14\, he spent a year in the Australia Chair at Harvard University developing guidelines for the transformation policy reform.
