The Resilient Communities & Infrastructure Theme aims to deliver resilient communities and infrastructure by designing for uncertainty, responsiveness to hazards, and recovery over short and longer-term horizons. Researchers solve problems at the intersection of people, places, and built environments, delivering evidence-based and real-world ready solutions such as public information, warnings and platforms, and fire-resistant building materials.
This Theme engages with individuals, communities, organisations, and governments with wicked and complex problems, and ideas to test. The research uses advanced technology, community-led approaches, and socio-ecological thinking for resilience. The Theme aspires to reinterpret resiliency problems and opportunities to drive innovative and engaged research.
