Dr Paul Wyrwoll is a Research Fellow at the ANU Institute for Water Futures and the Crawford School of Public Policy at Australian National University. His work centers on water economics and policy in Australia and the Asia-Pacific, with a focus on large water infrastructure projects, drinking water services, and nature-based flood resilience strategies. He has previously held roles at the ANU Centre for Climate and Energy Policy, the Food Energy Environment Water Network, and as Managing Editor of the Global Water Forum. His research spans environmental and resource economics, including hydropower regulation, water pricing design, and social-ecological system resilience.

He is affiliated with ANU groups on climate economics, water and flooding, and risk resilience. Recent publications emphasize water crises, managed aquifer recharge, and equity in water access. His work integrates interdisciplinary approaches to address complex environmental challenges.

Publications trends reflect a focus on water policy, infrastructure economics, and climate adaptation. Collaborations often involve transboundary water governance and community engagement in policy design, particularly in the Mekong Basin and Murray-Darling Basin regions.
