Craig Smith has worked in the engineering industry for over 2 decades. He notes that we are living in a real infrastructure boom, an era of mega projects. And he’s deeply concerned about the real skills shortage being experienced in Australia. No longer can Australia rely upon engineers from overseas bolstering the engineering ranks, we must look towards our own society for the future engineering leaders of our community

Disaster Resilience is all about managing floods and fires and everything nature can throw at us. Well, this would be wrong. According to Paul Gleeson, you can’t consider disaster resilience without also considering climate change.
If you want to consider and manage Australia’s disaster resilience, you need to look deeper, towards climate change, which is creating a larger occurrence of disasters upon the world. “when I think about disaster resilience.... I think about (it) through the lens of climate change.”
