From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Natural Edge Project (TNEP) was an independent not-for-profit think-tank for sustainability based in Australia.
The Natural Edge Project (TNEP) was located in a number of Australian cities. Members were hosted and mentored by several universities, including Griffith, Adelaide, QUT, and Curtin, in collaboration with the Institution of Engineers Australia.[1]
TNEP contributed to leading research, case studies, tools, policies and strategies for achieving sustainable development across government and business. The non-profit TNEP receives mentoring and support from selected experts and leading organisations in Australia and internationally. It delivered short courses, workshops, and conference presentations to build industry experience and relationships.[2]
The patron of TNEP in 2005 was Sir Ninian Stephen, former Governor General of Australia.[3]
