Translated fact sheets about natural disasters

These fact sheets provide translated information about the top 5 most commonly experienced natural disasters in Queensland, and how you can better prepare for them:

  • bushfires

The fact sheets for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in Creole and Wik feature a design by Aboriginal artist Leigh Harris of Ingeous Studios, depicting how Queenslanders traverse the impacts of natural disasters on our communities. The fact sheets in Creole and Wik are available as an audio file. There are also posters in these languages about preparing for bushfires and heatwaves as well as cyclones and floods.
