Why we need you

Why we need you

Risk is the interaction between the cause and the asset

You know your assets best and the local context of your council. It is important that your insight be used to rate the risks for your council.

Cross discipline participation

There will be many people with different backgrounds in the workshop. 

This is important to understand the interrelationship between social, economic and environmental impacts.

This way we can learn from each other. 

So....what you can do before the workshop

...apart from looking at this pretty sunset

Think about the assets that you are involved with in your day to day work

Think about how climate risks may interact with these assets

Review the risk registers that have been circulated prior

And we look forward to seeing you at the workshop!
