Aligning policy and practice for safer built environments
Associate Professor Kim Maund is the Deputy Head of School – Education and a force for change within the development and construction industry in Australia and worldwide.
With almost two decades of development and construction industry experience, Associate Professor Maund has seen first hand how regulatory policies guide and influence real-world outcomes. Effective policies, such as planning and building regulations, can protect community safety and security in crowded places, improve bushfire management through appropriate land zoning, promote environmental sustainability and so much more.
“Regulatory policy is a mechanism employed by government authorities and we remain a policy-driven society, yet, even with the introduction of such controls there remains a disparity between policy intent and outcome,” explains Kim. “My research aims to better understand this complexity.”
Kim’s recent work is helping to bring change, especially within the realm of planning and building policy and protocols. By evaluating the efficacy of policy introductions and amendments, Kim is narrowing the gap between what regulatory authorities propose and what happens on the ground, leading to more vibrant and resilient built environments and communities here in Australia and globally.
Solving industry challenges
Kim examines new and evolving policy directions as a way to proactively solve many prevailing challenges facing our society, such as disaster risk resilience. She believes policy extends “far beyond” the written word and therefore has no bounds as to the areas it impacts.
The same could be said about Kim’s research on the subject, which has been informed by her extensive involvement in a full spectrum of policy areas throughout her professional career. From issue identification and formulation through to implementation and evaluation, the hard-working scholar is continuing to build upon a solid knowledge base.
“My industry (including government) experience has aligned well with my academic career as I have a true understanding of the complexities around the built environment and the framework/systems in which it operates.”
“By understanding both theory and context, I am able to provide insight into solutions moving forward.”
National collaborations
Kim collaborates with Commonwealth, State and local government organisations, key industry stakeholders, the private sector and more to understand industry issues and develop research-based, innovative options to address them.
Her work aims to reduce “fragmentation, complexity and ambiguousness” and replace them with “clarity, direction, collaboration, education and awareness”. It is a process that often requires originality and out-of-the-box approaches, to help clearly communicate policies to communities.
Kim manages multiple multi-disciplinary projects. Nationally, her research has centred around disaster resilience and how policies can minimise the impact of bushfires and flooding through practices such as land use planning and building regulations. She researches policies and systems to build community resilience, for example, decision-making processes involved with rebuilding following bushfires.
Kim has also examined safety and security in crowded places, helping to understand and develop local policy from a proactive perspective rather than a reactionary one. “For example, when it comes to precinct development, there must be a consideration of safety and security elements from the initial proposal stages rather than after completion when retrofitting/redressing is required (which can be costly, and often unsightly).”
International impact
Kim’s research is helping to build a safer Australia and is also informing stronger policies and practices worldwide. For example, her research on international building codes aims to help communities affected by disaster events—such as Bangladesh and Nepal—to build resilience by broader knowledge and interpretation of safer building codes.
“One of our projects in the area of international building codes involved the development of a grey handbook for the informal building sector. The handbook concentrated on foundational principles to help construction teams erect safer buildings.”
The theme around policy and disaster events has also seen her research explore how to achieve zero-carbon buildings - reducing embodied carbon in the built environment. Most recently this involved fostering an Australia-India zero-carbon building construction network.
Academically, Kim’s research has been published and presented at national and international forums. Kim has won multiple best paper awards. She has also been appointed to many government and industry panels and committees due to her extensive experience and knowledge of policy. Her work is clearly underpinned by a love for policy and the built environment—and a desire to build resilience and help create a safer world for others.
“It makes me proud to know that I can actually make a difference at the operational level through research that evokes change with new information to guide policy and process.”

Research Expertise: Policy
Policy for resilience: the role of policy in disaster risk resilience through review of existing regulations and implementation in conjunction with evaluation and monitoring effectiveness. National disaster resilience projects have focused upon land use planning to avert devastation from bushfires and supporting vulnerable populations to prepare for heat waves. Internationally her research has extended to Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal given their susceptibility to frequent and devastating disaster events as well as the Maldives and Bhutan. The research intent is to understand and map policy systems and provide support to assist communities build capacity, become resilient and ultimately reduce impacts from future disaster events.
Policy to solve complex problems: environmental, urban planning and building regulations as a mechanism to explore built environment challenges such as affordable housing and net zero carbon. Nationally her research involves collaboration with local State Government agencies to understand opportunities to address the affordable housing crisis: improving planning pathways. Internationally, her recent research has involved collaboration with academics, government and industry stakeholders to develop an Australian-India Zero-Carbon Construction Network.

[more] Building resilience through flooding risk adaptation, a long-term and anticipatory measure, has become a crucial disaster risk reduction strategy against the backdrop of the changing climate. Policymakers and practitioners thus need to develop a robust understanding of factors that influence people's intentions to adopt protective measures. This study investigated the factors influencing flood risk adaptation intentions using a survey of 392 households in Glefe, Accra. The survey used a Likert-scale based questionnaire to collect data. We then conducted structural equation modeling analysis to test hypothesized relationships. The results revealed that flood experience, coping experience, flood risk vulnerability and severity perceptions, and perceived adaptation capacity have a statistically significant relationship with adaptation intentions. The residents' perception of their adaptive capacity, represented by self-efficacy and response efficacy, determined the strength of the intention to adapt to flooding risks. The findings make significant contributions to knowledge by (a) defining and validating ¿Coping Experience¿ and ¿Flood Risk Adaptation Intention¿ as measurable latent constructs and (b) providing a path for developing protective measures to enable adaptation. The findings also hold practical value to policymakers and practitioners, encouraging flood risk adaptation measures as a choice of long-term and anticipatory disaster risk reduction strategy.

We sought to understand the extent that key stakeholders in LUP consider natural hazard risk in determination of rezoning applications. The aim was to identify why land uses are permitted within areas exposed to risk of natural hazards like bushfires. Presenting the case of New South Wales, a state ravaged by devastating bushfires, we explore decision-making practices within the regulatory planning environment. We utilised a qualitative exploratory research design involving a multi-criteria decision-making framework as a lens to explore how key stakeholders make decisions to consider bushfire risk within the policy environment. Our findings identify the lack of a consistent process employed in LUP decision-making and priority given to decision-making criteria that emphasises achieving targets for employment and housing and results in low priority given to bushfire risk. We suggest that placing higher priority on bushfire risk in decision-making, within and between organisations, is necessary to consider bushfire risk within regulatory LUP activities to support disaster risk reduction and create resilient communities.

It identifies and synthesises the often discounted social and environmental values of creative placemaking along with typically emphasised economic values. Design/methodology/approach: This paper builds upon two research phases; first, a review and extraction of creative placemaking value indicators from relevant current urban, cultural and planning literature; and second, the identification of relevant, practice-based, value indicators through interviews with 23 placemaking experts including practitioners, urban planners, developers and place managers from the two largest cities of NSW, Australia; Sydney and Newcastle. Findings: This study identifies three broad thematics for valuing creative placemaking along with several sub-categories of qualitative and quantitative indicators. These indicators reveal the holistic value of creative placemaking for its key stakeholders, including expert placemakers, designers, building developers, government and community groups. A key conclusion of the research is the need for tools that grasp the interconnected, and at times conflicting, nature of placemaking¿s social, economic and environmental outcomes. Originality/value: While a variety of value indicators exist to understand the need for ongoing resourcing of creative placemaking, stakeholders identified the limitations of current approaches to determine, represent and appraise the value of creative placemaking. The indicators of value proposed in this research consolidate and extend current discourse about the value of creative placemaking specifically. The indicators themselves have profound practical implications for how creative placemaking is conceived, executed and evaluated. Theoretically, the study builds on the deep relationships between values and practice in creative placemaking, as well as critiquing narrow forms of evaluation that entrench economic benefits over other outcomes.

The devastating impacts of these natural hazards on such settlements can be attributed to the higher levels of physical, economic, social and environmental vulnerability in conjunction with inadequate and poor level of disaster preparedness. Conceptualizing a detailed risk profile, in the context of informal settlement characteristics presents a starting point to which the impacts posed by environmental hazards can be addressed effectively. This paper develops a theoretical framework through literature review coupling the concepts of "disaster hazards", "vulnerability" and "informal settlements". The findings suggest that the policy environment (environmental/land use planning and communication) impacting the informal settlement characteristics (demographic, financial, social/poetical and locational/environmental) is key to managing disaster risk profile in informal settlements. The paper concludes by identifying five theoretical propositions that can assist in disaster preparedness.

[more] The potential of risk communication as tool for reducing the devastating impacts posited by disaster hazards on human lives and property has been discussed extensively in literature. Most risk communication studies and strategies focus on awareness creation and education on disaster hazards. However, awareness creation and education on disaster hazards do not necessary translate into preparatory attitude and behaviour towards disaster hazards. Frantic efforts are required to persuade and motivate people at risk to convert hazard awareness and education into preparation towards disaster hazards. Against this backdrop, this paper develops a conceptual model through literature review to facilitate and enhance disaster preparedness through risk communication.

[more] This paper reports on a project that explores the opportunities and challenges for compliance with safe building codes for disaster resilience, focusing on two countries-Bangladesh and Nepal. Recent disasters in both countries highlight a significant problem of non-compliance with building codes. However, these disasters have brought institutional and community awareness of the importance of safe building codes, presenting a germane opportunity to explore the issues associated with compliance. Building codes do exist in the two countries, but due to socio-economic, political and cultural conditions compliance is generally lacking or limited, particularly in the large informal building sector. There is thus a need for understanding how these codes might be more widely adopted to enable disaster resilience. Collaboration between partner universities in these countries with experience in this field address: sharing the understanding that evidence-based knowledge is a critical component in the commitment to local action; improving institutional and community awareness of the importance of compliance with/barriers to enforcement of codes; fostering communities of collaborative practice; and developing local and international dissemination networks. A log-frame approach indicates the rationale, assumptions and expected outcomes of the project. The project is at a preliminary stage and this paper discusses the framework associated with the exploration of barriers and enablers to building codes compliance.

[more] With the introduction of ecologically sustainable development (ESD) and subsequent legislative regulations throughout Australia, effective environmental management across the construction sector should occur. In reality, construction operations continue to have detrimental environmental impacts. Within New South Wales the primary legislation governing development control, for the purpose of ESD, has produced a complex legislative system that its ability to achieve the objectives of environmental protection remains questionable. Large scale development projects may evoke need for associated environmental regulatory controls; however, such rules are generally not applicable to small and medium scale developments. Yet, these types of projects make up a significant amount of the development market and collectively a major contribution to detrimental environmental impacts. Given each construction project is unique, the application of complex regulatory controls may result in notably different levels of environmental protection between developments. Inconsistency may be seen with regulatory interpretation, implementation, monitoring and associated processes of enforcement. Using a systemic lens this research linked the efficacy of regulation, monitoring, and information flow to explain variability in the outcomes of onsite environmental management operations. The paper reports preliminary findings of a two stage qualitative study involving semi-structured interviews with key project stakeholders (e.g. government regulatory officers, construction managers) and case study examination of four medium scale development projects. Using a phenomenological coding approach, preliminary analysis identified a number of themes that impact effective onsite environmental management including: environmental interpretation and assessment, compliance and enforcement, external influences, collaboration and engagement.
