Warburton - Community Input into Resilience Priorities

The Warburton Emergency Planning Group are commencing a community led resilience journey into how we as a community can be better prepared for future challenges, and we’d love you to get involved! We’d appreciate your input on some questions below so we can include your thoughts as we work out the community’s greatest concerns and strengths.

Resilience means different things to different people. In our local project, resilience is about our ability to be better prepared together for future challenges. Challenges can include shocks - sudden disruptive events (i.e. bushfire, storms, floods) and stresses – slow burning issues (i.e. housing affordability, mental health, social equity).
