Guidance on climate action and resilience planning for neighbourhood house networks
There are close to 400 neighbourhood houses in Victoria and over a thousand across Australia. In a community emergency, neighbourhood houses are often the first to respond, and they play an essential role in rebuilding communities. Importantly, they also take a preventative approach, building the resilience of communities by addressing the underlying drivers of vulnerability in their every day work.
