Abstract | In October 2013, a number of large destructive bushfires resulted in the loss of property in the greater Sydney area. Following such events, it is important to liaise with the community to understand their actions on the day and what agency information was effective and what was not. Learning from these events means that management responses can be improved for future bushfires, hopefully resulting in a reduced loss of property and the ongoing protection of life. The Centre for Environmental Risk Management at the University of Wollongong ran an extensive online survey for residents in the fire affected ares. |
