The Southern NSW Innovation Hub is keen to support communities, groups and individuals to connect, communicate and create future change based on drought experience and hindsight. These 2.5 hr facilitated events will:
· Gather together community decision makers and service providers with an interest in changing climate and current / future drought and other seasonal events
· Highlight the nature and impact of drought across communities
· Provide resources to support farming communities and service providers as they support growers and other personnel during times of need
· Share the role of the Hub and its Knowledge Broker Network for points of contact
About the Hub and the Need for Community Based Forums
The Southern NSW Innovation Hub is one of eight across Australia and is an epicentre of user-driven innovation, research and adoption. Southern NSW Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hub - Research. Based out of Charles Sturt University in Wagga Wagga and in partnership with a number of Local Hosts, we are keen to support communities, groups and individuals to connect, communicate and create future change based on drought experience and hindsight. The need for these forums has been identified through some of our regional partners inclusive of primary producers, Indigenous, industry and community groups, researchers, entrepreneurs, education institutions, resource management practitioners and government agencies as well as the work across our 25 strong Knowledge Broker Network and direct conversations with primary producers and community members.
