Building disaster resilience in an increasingly risky world
Sept 26, 2022
Brisbane North PHN recently attended the fifth Australian Disaster Resilience Conference, held in Adelaide 24 to 25 August 2022, along with 3,200 delegates from a range of sectors to share knowledge and build connections for a disaster resilient Australia.
The conference theme, Resilience in a riskier world – adapting and transforming for the future, adopted a look back and look forward approach to explore ways to build disaster resilience in an increasingly risky world, with a focus on adapting and transforming for the future.
To achieve true community resilience there needs to be a strategy with vision that does not link building community resilience to a singular disaster event.
Additionally, it was announced that on 1 September 2022, the National Recovery and Resilience Agency and Emergency Management will merge to become the National Emergency Management Agency. The merging of the two agencies will bring response management and recovery management into the same agency.
