Place-based Adaptation Planning Guidance

In 2018-19, several RMIT University members of The Exchange worked with The Australian Resilience Centre and the Victorian Government Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) to co-develop these Place-based Adaptation Planning Guidance. They draw on ‘leading’ adaptation practice and theory. The suite includes:

Guidance Note 5: Exploring Multiple Futures (PDF, 1.8 MB)

This guidance draws on previous work by RMIT Exchange members on adaptation in Natural Resource Management, and The Australian Resilience Centre’s work with the Stockholm Resilience Centre on their Wayfinder Guide.
