This project aims to provide evidence-based data to inform future communication strategies and messaging that are fit for purpose in a remote First Nations community context to enhance safety and resilience.

A knowledge gap exists in understanding the effectiveness of current communication mediums and messaging used to communicate information on planning, preparing, responding and recovering from an emergency event to remote First Nations communities; and determine:

  • the most commonly used communication mediums by First Nations communities
