Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC research Celeste Young has received the best poster award at the European Climate Change Adaptation Conference.
Celeste is Collaborative Research Fellow at Victoria Institute of Strategic Economic Studies. Her winning poster, 'Whose risk is it anyway', focuses on risk ownership and draws on her CRC project Mapping and understanding vulnerability and risks.
The project is developing a 'broad brush-stroke' national picture of vulnerability and values at risk to bushfire and natural hazards at the institutional scale.
The conference – which took place in Glasgow, Scotland from 5 – 9 June 2017 – explores the risks and opportunities to drive innovative adaptations that climate change presents.
