Abstract

Over recent years there has been a strong public perception of the increased impact of disasters worldwide. This increase is compounded by the effects of climate change, population growth, the interconnectivity and complexity of modern societies, urbanisation and an increase in the proportion of vulnerable members of society.

The aim of this project was to develop a conceptual framework and standards for higher education programs in emergency and disaster management in Australia.
