We lead the National Coordination Mechanism. It unites all levels of Australian government, industry and non-government organisations for crisis management.

Giving effective, timely warnings can enable homeowners to take action.

Use materials that make it harder for embers to ignite them. Embers can set fire to buildings by attaching to certain materials. They can build up against parts of the house or structures in the garden causing fire.

Regular home maintenance keeps you prepared against radiant heat or embers during bushfires.

Landscaping of public areas is important as it helps increase the community's resilience to bushfires.

Landscaping strategies can prevent ignition and reduce the effects of radiant heat.

Landscapes can absorb or redirect floodwater and reduce damage from floods.

Inspecting your property each year can protect against damage caused during cyclone season.
