Developed by Green Cross Australia, HardenUp.org has been designed to build community resilience in Queensland to severe weather by raising awareness of hazard exposure through a social media platform.

 

The platform encourages Queenslanders to:

• identify their personal risk exposure to cyclone, severe storm and storm surge
• take practical actions to reduce hazard exposure
• build community resilience by getting involved in local volunteering programs
• adopt sustainable practices, especially by making green choices when recovering from severe weather events

HardenUp.org's self‐reliance message will integrate community natural hazard resilience and climate mitigation objectives, with a focus on how to prepare for, survive through and recover sustainably from major weather events.

 

The Residential Development Council is a proud support of HardenUp.org and are alliance partners with Green Cross Australia.
