Event description

The Victorian AELERT Regulators Gathering is an event for regulators at all levels of government from federal, state, and local government agencies to connect and participate in discussions with a strong practical focus. This gathering is an opportunity to collaborate with your peers and face common problems and shared challenges in 2025 and beyond.

The topics and content for the event program have been developed in collaboration with our planning committee in Victoria and National Council representative to ensure that it is relevant and applicable right now, in the current regulatory climate.

The topics covered in this event include:

• AELERT network update and debrief from the recent 2024 Global Summit
• Indigenous voice in regulatory practice to deliver whole of Country outcomes
• Victorian peer agency updates from federal, state, and local government agencies (agency remit, current challenges, regulatory focus / interagency programs, what’s coming up in 2025)
• Intelligence led (not fed) strategy & priorities – including user experiences and risk-based regulation, setting regulatory priorities, and outcomes performance reporting
• Interactive regulatory capture workshop – Understanding regulatory capture, risks, impacts, controls and how to mitigate it at the agency, team, and individual level.
• First Peoples self-determination & regulator programs – Northern Territory ranger programs, Victorian eDNA initiatives, collaboration with First Nations peoples, NZ EPA and data sovereignty

We are looking forward to hosting our Victorian regulators and we encourage you to participate in sharing a 5-minute presentation as part of our peer agency updates session, please reach out to us at aelert@dcceew.gov.au to get involved.
