Frequently asked questions
The Disaster Ready Great Ocean Road program is a tailored version of Resilient Ready’s innovative Business Community Resilience (BCR) Toolkit. The BCR Toolkit program builds regional connections and helps businesses to make small changes that have a big impact.
Run from June until November 2023, the Disaster Ready Phillip Island + Bass Coast program has supported many businesses across the region to build their resilience through 15 resilience-themed micro-learning modules. All modules focus on a locally-relevant topic and take 5-10 minutes to complete. Modules include two simple yes/no questions, a local business case study and easy-to-understand worksheets and tools.
Throughout 2023, the Toolkit has been a huge benefit to participating businesses, and it’ll be available for more businesses to complete throughout 2024.
Program outcomes include:
- Safer tourists and tourism operators
- Increased knowledge across the business community
- Positive behaviour changes resulting in better business
- Data to identify local business community vulnerabilities
