| Title: | Monitoring regional economies in Australia: why and how |
| Authors: | Chapman, Paul

| Abstract: | Economic activity is inherently variable and monitoring it is a major challenge, especially
in regional economies where resources are fewer and activity is more variable. Using a
recent study of the Riverland region, the authors set out the information available, its
limitations and means by which it may be extended. It is argued that monitoring must
respond to specific needs and extend to information beyond the scope of the merely
economic. It is not simply a matter of tracking commonly used economic variables but of
understanding specific economic challenges and using that understanding to target
economic and social information. |
