Developing information to support the implementation of place-based economic development strategies: A case study of regional and rural development policy in the State of Victoria, Australia
Summary. Victoria, Australia implemented place-based regional development strategies requiring local and government partnerships. A key challenge emerged: stakeholders lacked shared understanding of government's role in promoting local economic growth. The author describes developing an information base to address this misalignment and offers lessons for practitioners implementing similar place-based economic development approaches elsewhere.
