 | | The Centre for Natural Resource Management (NRM) with its Investment Advisory Board (IABoard) was formally established on 11 February 2003, to develop and maintain partnerships with NRM Regional Groups, scientists and researchers, business and industry, governments and agencies, so that integrated natural resource management across South Australia is based on world-class research and development. |
 | | It acts as a broker between regional communities with NRM problems to resolve, public research institutions with a strong technical knowledge of the problems and potential solutions, governments that can adopt policy initiatives, and the private sector with skills in raising capital and developing business solutions. |
 | | The Centre identifies and negotiates supplementary funding and co-investment sources for NRM research, from both the public and private sectors, with the aim of leveraging NAP research funding. |
