Enhancing Networks for Resilience Stage Two – Understanding applied learning to enhance disaster preparedness in a PCP

The National Strategy for Disaster Resilience (NSDR) recognises that the strength of partnerships and networks in the non-government and community sector are fundamental for enhancing disaster resilience (COAG 2011). Southern Grampians Glenelg Primary Care Partnership (SGGPCP), in collaboration with RMIT University, therefore sought to examine how networks developed through SGGPCP might contribute to disaster resilience outcomes, specifically disaster preparedness.
