Australia: Victorian climate change adaptation plan 2013
This first Climate Change Adaptation Plan for Victoria focuses on government preparedness by ensuring that: (i) appropriate risk management strategies are in place for public assets and services; (ii) enhanced disaster resilience strategies are being implemented; and (iii) government policies and programs encourage and facilitate climate resilience and adaptive capacity across the Victorian community.
The plan provides the basis for building Victoria’s climate resilience and a clear framework for ongoing discussions and partnerships with local government and other stakeholders.
