How can deepening our knowledge of the Richmond River help us to reduce the impacts of flooding in the Northern Rivers?
Join us for a conversation with researchers from Southern Cross University about the ways they are working with our community to increase our understanding of the Richmond River.
As part of the Southern Cross University’s Vice Chancellor’s Flood Recovery Project Scheme, Emily Horton, Associate Professor Adele Wessell and Dr Brendan Cox have been collaborating with people across the Northern Rivers to bring together a wealth of knowledge about our local river.
Their research explores the ways we live with a dynamic and highly modified river in our landscape, with the ambition to develop creative new solutions that will allow us to live in harmony with our waterways, regenerate the landscape and reduce the impacts of flooding.
Emily, Adele and Brendan will share highlights from their research, followed by a Q&A session.
