Exciting news for climate adaptation in the Murray-Darling Basin!
Two northern Victorian Catchment Management Authorities are embarking on a groundbreaking study to assess climate change risks to water resources, supported by over $3 million in Australian Government funding through the CRC program.
Collaborating with the Murray-Darling Basin Authority and esteemed universities, this initiative aims to develop a new strategy for climate risk assessment, empowering stakeholders to make informed, sustainable decisions.
The Environment Institute’s Professor Holger Maier from the University of Adelaide emphasizes the importance of connecting climate data to actionable strategies, helping communities navigate a drier future.
The project will kick off with a prototype model in its first year, followed by pilot testing alongside local stakeholders. The ultimate goal? Transforming climate adaptation practices for a resilient and sustainable environment.
Looking forward to seeing the impact of this important work!
