The Hunter JO has recently kicked off our Disaster Ready Funded project, Getting Local Government Disaster Ready – Disaster Resilience Capacity Building for the Hunter and Central Coast.
This 3-year project will build disaster resilience capacity and capability within our member councils by:
- Supporting development and implementation of regional Disaster Adaptation Plans with the NSW Reconstruction Authority
- Embedding resilience into councils’ IP&R framework
- Coordinating a regional resilience network
- Supporting community engagement efforts
To find out more or to join the Hunter Councils Resilience Network, please reach out to Anna Flack at annaf@hunterjo.nsw.gov.au.
Funded under the Disaster Ready Fund – an Australian Government initiative.
