                    &lt;p&gt;This project aims to improve the certainty, legitimacy and efficiency of water planning processes across northern Australia.  To do this, the team are developing a tool-kit of good practices to engage industry, Indigenous and rural communities in water planning.  They are also working with water agencies to improve water planning approaches.&lt;/p&gt;


        &lt;/div&gt;
        &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Outcomes&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The project will improve water planning effort at two levels:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nationally by developing a tool-kit of good practices to engage industry, Indigenous and rural communities; by setting guidelines and benchmarks to monitor and evaluate collaboration in water planning; by establishing procedures that integrate Indigenous values into water planning.&lt;/p&gt;
