🔥 Are you #bushfire ready? Take our quiz to prepare! 🔥

Recent bushfires in NSW and VIC remind us of the importance of being prepared. Waiting during a bushfire can be risky. To help, we've created a quick quiz to improve your bushfire readiness.

In a council of 54,000 people, it’s difficult to create bushfire education resources when you don't know how your community perceives bushfire threat.

Podcasts, community radio (like @SBS), WhatsApp, WeChat, & digital screens at ethnic supermarkets - know the channels that suit your audience (it'll be different depending on their culture).

💡Understand where your audiences are say Shereen Ghali, Serena Low and Catalina Neira.
