Public Safety - Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Natural Hazards Consulting focuses on the ‘sharp end' of natural hazards warnings and response. The practice was born out of the conviction that the gap between what we know as experts about a natural hazard before it impacts a community, and what the community hears, is still far too high.Natural hazards are all predictable to a degree. We have to keep striving to empower local decision-making as part of our efforts to build seamless multi-hazard warning systems.Successful disaster mitigation involves great science, committed and competent operational teams, well drilled emergency management professionals, trusted and robust media relationships, and strong community engagement. Our vocation is to help bring good science into the service of the people to help save lives and preserve property.We work with our clients and our partners to:- Review and improve multi-hazard natural hazard early warning systems, including in the information flowing to the community.- Improve the operation of national meteorological and hydrological services- Help clients understand and use the services that they already receive from national and international warning agencies, so that risk from natural hazards can be reduced without additional ongoing costs.- Assist with risk evaluation, whether at government, board, or community level, including for the extreme weather risks associated with a changing climate.- Conduct briefings about natural hazard risks, including pre-season briefings for critical hazards
