Community disaster challenge

Download Challenge (PDF)

A list of useful Queensland Government open datasets are tagged on data.qld.gov.au

• Available data describes ‘who’, ‘what’, ‘where’ ‘when’ and even ‘why’ a disaster occurred – but what about how communities and individuals were affected?
• How is resilience enabled by infrastructure, procedures and social factors?
• Rebuilding stronger, faster, sustainably and inclusively after disasters
• Story telling is a very powerful tool…

What is your solution?

We suggest you consider using the following four Queensland Government open datasets on data.qld.gov.au

1. Queensland Resilience Index
2. Queensland Regional Household Survey
3. Qld Community Preparedness Survey (May 2013)
4. Qld Community Preparedness Survey (Nov 2013)
