The Torrens Resilience Initiative (TRI) is one of Australia’s longest-standing research initiatives dedicated to disaster preparedness and management. Our research is advancing the concept of resilience and helping organisations, communities and nations balance disaster preparedness and prevention, response and recovery.
Our research advises and guides government policy, prepares communities and empowers people to minimise the impacts of possible natural hazards, health and security risks or humanitarian and other emergencies in Australia and around the world.
