Abstract

This report details a set of policy‐relevant themes selected from a large mixed method post‐event study of flood impacted residents of the Australian states of Queensland (QLD) and New South Wales (NSW). This research was funded by Natural Hazards Research Australia, with the support of Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) and NSW State Emergency Service (NSW SES). The focus was on community experiences of the eastern Australia floods, January – July 2022.

This report provides details of 13 themes emerging from the qualitative (interview) data. These are complemented by a set of five additional policy‐relevant content areas driven from the structure of the quantitative (survey) data.
