Lisa Gibbs, Professor of Public Health and Director of the Child and Community Wellbeing Unit in Melbourne School of Population and Global Health and Academic Lead for Community Resilience and Public Health in the Centre for Disaster Management and Public Safety, joins host, Lukas Petridis, in the fourth episode of Season 1 of the City Resilience in Melbourne podcast. Lisa’s research focuses on disaster recovery and resilience particularly relating to the interplay between individual and community level outcomes.
In this episode, Lisa and Lukas discuss how communities fair after the experience of a disaster, the cognitive impact of the 2009 Black Saturday bushfires on primary school children, how Victoria faired during the coronavirus compared to the rest of the world and whether or not the community of Melbourne is prepared for the affects of climate change and what it’ll have on the built environment that is the city?
City Resilience in Melbourne acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the lands on which this podcast was produced, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung People of the Kulin Nation, and pays respect to Elders past and present.
