School of Social and Political SciencesCentre for Public Policy



The Public Policy Network is an informal network of Australasian public policy scholars that meets annually to discuss public policy research, teaching and issues. Our conferences are run in workshop style as a single stream to facilitate discussion across issues and papers. Our focus is on policy theory and Australian and New Zealand policy issues as well as broader public policy research that can inform policy practice.

The Public Policy Network Conference is hosted by the Centre for Public Policy, The University of Melbourne (CPP). Established in 1995, the Centre is committed to supporting sustained improvement in public governance and management through research, teaching and knowledge exchange. It works directly with public and voluntary sector workers as well as those studying for a career in public service. The Centre contributes to coursework programs, offers PhD supervision and also hosts public forums.

Carlton is a suburb which lies to the north of Melbourne's City Centre. It is a colourful and vibrant area because of it being the traditional home of Melbourne's Italians as well as the strong student population with the University of Melbourne and RMIT University nearby. The suburb's epicentre is the restaurant-lined Lygon Street. Besides numerous Italian restaurants and pizzeria to choose from, the street is also home to countless cafes, making the suburb somewhat of a pilgrimage destination for Melbourne’s coffee addicts.
