Hi from sunny, warm Australia where our summer is ending,
I am a researcher who has been engaged by a Water Supply Authority here in Australia to investigate models, reporting frameworks and current research focused on achieving behavioural change towards environmental sustainability. Although this body of research will be concerned with residential water conservation I would like hear about any research/ projects/ programs/publictaions/ reporting frameworks and methods in this field as I will be conducting a broad literature review over the next month. I would really appreciate if members could email any papers, advice or information regarding their projects.
Kind regards Kirsty Davies

Hi Kirsty
In Victoria, Rebekah Brown and Andre Taylor from Monash University have done a range of different projects in this area (http://arts.monash.edu.au/ges/staff/rbrown.php)
In New South Wales, the NSW Governments Water for Life program are heavily involved in this area and are across lots of material on residential behaviour change and demand reduction strategies. (Contact Reid MacNamara on [email protected]).

Hi Kirsty,
You can check out the Stanford Precourt Institute for Energy Efficiency. They have put together a nice behavior database:
