Communicating climate change a priority

A key priority for the AFAC Climate Change Group in 2019 is communicating the impact of climate change on and to the emergency management sector.

AFAC and AIDR continue to progress a productive partnership in leading the AFAC Climate Change Group. 

The AFAC Climate Change Group convened in Melbourne in February to progress the next phase of the group’s work. A key priority for the group in 2019 is communicating the impact of climate change on and to the emergency management sector.

Members of the group include key individuals from jurisdictional emergency management agencies and the Bureau of Meteorology. Together they are tasked with producing a body of work to strategically support effective climate change risk mitigation, planning and adaptation outcomes for AFAC members, their stakeholders and the community.
