Australia like many other countries is increasingly beset by flood, fire and drought, large-scale natural disasters that leave deep scars on our landscape and within our communities. Artists in Australia and across the world are now playing a vital and important role in supporting effective disaster recovery and resilience in the ecology of rebuilding communities in the face of this growing global reality.

We are working to secure and promote the critical role of the arts in disaster preparedness and recovery efforts nationally and internationally. Typically an afterthought when planning community recovery, the Creative Recovery Network get arts and culture sector a ‘seat at the table’ when the responses are being planned. We demonstrate the value and importance of integrating arts and culture into disaster recovery from the ground up.
