This framework empowers regional communities to prevent, stabilize, and reverse salinity trends while improving water quality. It aligns with NHT's objectives including biodiversity conservation, sustainable resource use, community capacity building, and institutional change. The model incorporates competitive, outcome-focused resource allocation and addresses tensions between top-down and bottom-up management approaches. Key principles emphasize transparency, objectivity, and cost-effectiveness, supported by various funding models such as equity-based, needs-based, and outcome-focused analyses to ensure effective resource investment and management.

Towards an analytical framework for assessing regional natural resource management investment strategies
NAP goal is to empower regional communities to: prevent, stabilise and reverse trends in salinity improve water quality Context to developing a framework…
Context to developing a framework… • NHT objectives: • Biodiversity Conservation • Sustainable Use of Natural • Resources • Community Capacity Building and • Institutional Change
Regional model of delivery Context to developing a framework… • Competitive outcome-focused • resource allocation • High expectations
Lack of common currency Context to developing a framework… • Tension between top-down & bottom-up management • Lack of consistent comparable data

Simple Formula e.g. Equity, Area Model 1
Needs Based Model 2 Surrogate Measure of Environmental Disturbance e.g. Per Capita, Ag Prod, Land Clearance Environmental Health Measure e.g. NLWRA Catchment Health Indicator, MDB Salinity Audit
