DisasterWISE Get-Togethers are designed to bring together members of the DisasterWISE Communities Network, fostering connection, knowledge-sharing, and collaboration. These gatherings serve as essential touchpoints for members to share experiences about common challenges in disaster preparedness, response, recovery and climate adaptation initiatives.
The DisasterWISE Communities Network hosts a one hour online gathering to discuss a topical subject. Guest speakers are invited along to share their knowledge, with an emphasis on lived experience, community-led initiatives and on supporting community resilience.
This month, DisasterWISE welcomes Jade Ambrose from Merri-bek Tech and Terry Matts from Crest NSW Inc. The conversation will be about community communications for adaptation and resilience.
Merri-bek Tech is building local web serving across our neighbourhoods in order to provide affordable alternatives to big tech, while improving our local resilience in the face of the climate crisis.
Crest NSW Inc. is a volunteer organisation providing specialist communications support to emergency and community organisations.
