LAST CHANCE to enter the 2023 Disaster Challenge! Entries close 11:59pm AEST tomorrow. Your pitch doesn't need to be a complete solution to the wicked problem - that comes later. All we need now is your team's concept (written or video). More info at disasterchallenge.com.au

Yes, we need better flood warnings. But most of us don’t or can’t evacuate from floods. As @mel_taylor48 and colleagues (@Macquarie_Uni + @UOW) write, safety means focusing on community resilience as well as warnings bit.ly/432z3ja

ACT residents who've lived through recent bushfires are being asked to share their experience to help improve maps used by the public for the first time during the Black Summer fires | @AlexCrowe12 canberratimes.com.au/story/8122363/…




#HuonValley, #Tasmania, we need your help! If you have been affected by #bushfire & would like a say in how maps are used to show bushfire warnings, we’d like to talk to you. Our team from @RMIT will be in the HV from 20 Feb - register now, share your view bit.ly/3fnOChN

Monday's the day. To help inform flood safety, if you were flooded in NSW or Qld between Jan-July 2022 please consider completing our research questionnaire. Closing date 11.59pm AEDT 13 Feb naturalhazards.com.au/floods2022 @NSWSES @Macquarie_Uni @QUT @unisqaus @mel_taylor48 @disasterbarb
