- wellbeing and employability (recognising the connection between support for wellbeing and personal capacity in skills and confidence as business managers, employees and community members)
- environmental commodities (understanding opportunities and risks in engaging in emerging environmental markets)
- best practice agriculture and preparing for drought (techniques, tools, processes and approaches that support holistic, sustainable, productive, profitable management of natural resources within extreme variable climate conditions).
