Parts of northern Tasmania experienced destructive flooding in October 2022. This research is exploring community experiences of the Tasmania State Emergency Service flood warning system, as well as community preparedness for flood. Locations include Launceston, the Meander Valley, Kentish, Latrobe, Northern Midlands, Central Coast and Break O’Day local government areas.
Supported by the Tasmania SES, this research will inform improvements to the flood warning system and community disaster preparedness programs.
