Forum Overview

Following the 100 Resilient Cities efforts to build resilience through social, economic, and physical challenges, this MUDRI Forum looks at broadening its scope to address risk in emerging non-traditional events. Our invited speakers explore how interdisciplinary perspectives could inform and reform resilience strategies.

Health & wellbeing represents one of four dimensions in the 2015 City Resilience Framework. (1) Likewise, health resilience is strongly promoted throughout the 2015 Sendai Framework. The Third United Nations World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction adopted The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 20152030 in Sendai, Japan, during March 2015. Representatives from 187 UN member States had the unique opportunity to consider how it is

urgent and critical to anticipate, plan for and reduce disaster risk in order to more effectively protect persons, communities and countries, their livelihoods, health, cultural heritage, socioeconomic assets and ecosystems, and thus strengthen their resilience.(2)

An expected outcome and goal from the Sendai Framework is a more explicit focus on people and their health. As such, significant opportunities exist to develop and enhance adaptive strategies and plans. This last MUDRI Forum for 2015 aims to provide strategies to achieve this goal by considering: The changing landscape non-traditional disasters; Broadening resilience to emerging non-traditional events; Behaviour change in practice, and Community development trending in resilience.

The 10th Annual Prof Skip Burkle Jnr Keynote Lecture, Chaired by Associate Professor Jude Charlton, launches the MUDRI / EMV Compendium of community-based resilience building initiatives. Dr Caroline Spencer, Research Fellow, MUDRI, recounts the story of Victorian-based community resilience building initiatives and the subsequent Compendium. MUDRI and EMV representatives will launch the initial MUDRI / EMV Compendium.

Who Should Attend

This interactive Forum will be a valuable forum for community members and community-based organisations and the broadest range of members of our Disaster Preparedness and Management Community, including State and local government, emergency services and recovery organisations, university academics and students. Those with policy making and/or operational roles will greatly benefit from attendance.

Participants receive seminar notes, morning and afternoon tea and a light lunch to maximise networking opportunities.
