The visionary book Water Futures offers a collective visual insight into building resilience to water shocks into the design and management of our urban, regional and rural landscapes and communities in South-East Queensland. The design charrette workshop that created this Vision brought together 150 professionals who shared and debated what this Vision for a livable and resilient region could be.

But where to next?

At this forum you will:

• Hear from the authoring team - James Davidson and Clive Bape - on what they built into this story and the mix of information and images developed.
• Hear from the Flood CoP participants who have used the ideas in the book and why they value it
• Judge yourself what you like or find useful and also question and seek more insights on what this might mean
• Work with others to develop options on how the ideas could be furtrher applied in SEQ or other parts of the State

Participants in the Flood CoP network are keen that the insights from this book are shared more widely and this Forum will build a range of options on how that application might progress and your contribution is sorely welcomed.

At the end of the Forum stay on to enjoy meeting with other folk in the Network and enjoy the stunning views across the Brisbane River and surrounds.
