of long-term strategic research alliances between higher education organisations and industry, and other research end-users, in order to apply advanced knowledge to problems to provide opportunities to achieve national economic, commercial, environmental, or social benefits. The scheme provides opportunities for internationally competitive research projects to be conducted in collaboration with organisations outside the higher education sector; encourages growth of a national pool of world-class researchers to meet the needs of the broader Australian innovation system; and builds the scale and focus of research in the Australian Government’s Science and Research Priorities. The Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities scheme encourages Eligible Organisations to develop collaborative arrangements with other Eligible
Organisations and/or Partner Organisations to develop and support research infrastructure. The scheme supports large-scale national or international cooperative initiatives allowing expensive research infrastructure to be shared and/or accessed; supports areas of existing and/or emerging research strength; and supports and develops research infrastructure for the broader research community. The Special Research Initiatives scheme provides funding for new and emerging fields of research and builds capacity in strategically important areas. The scheme supports high-quality research which will assist in advancing Australia’s research excellence to be globally competitive and deliver benefits to the community. The ARC currently funds several Special Research Initiatives in a wide range of research areas.
