The Impact of Flooding on the Community Response to Climate Disaster

I think we need to invest more in building the capacity of indigenous people with these knowledge systems on country who could be part of using our system science to say something is coming. It's quite an interesting phenomena because I speak to climate scientists all around the world and it's amazing how many of the top scientists are actually Australian scientists. We don't need a radio that says this flood is coming we read the countryWe can see what are the ants doing what are the insects doing what is the wind telling us so you know I think technology is great it's there but not as good as ancient wisdom from indigenous people living on their land communicating with country.
