About the QDRF (2018-19)
The Queensland Disaster Resilience Fund (QDRF) was announced in 2018 to support projects to strengthen the resilience of Queensland communities and help them better prepare for disasters.
In the wake of severe rainfall and flooding across western Queensland through March and April, eight councils will receive assistance under joint Commonwealth-state Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA), marking the thirteenth disaster activation of 2023-24.
Local governments, state agencies and non-government organisations can now apply for a share of the $38 million Queensland Disaster Resilience Fund (QDRF) for initiatives that will better protect Queensland communities from natural disasters.
Financial assistance is now available to five councils in the Wide Bay-Burnett region affected by heavy rain and flooding during December.
Rebuilding, recovering and reconnecting disaster affected communities is one of the three organisational objectives in the Queensland Reconstruction Authority (QRA) Strategic Plan 2024-28.
From modest beginnings, a small regional council’s must-do mindset has created a template for inclusive risk reduction in the community.
The Queensland Reconstruction Authority (QRA) welcomes the Queensland's Disaster Management Arrangements 2023 Review Report 2: 2022–2023 published by the Inspector-General Emergency Management on 31 May 2023.
With the activation of joint Commonwealth-state Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA), Scenic Rim Regional Council will be well supported with its response and recovery efforts following a damaging week of rains and flooding.
With the effects of ex-Tropical Cyclone Jasper being felt across large areas of Far North Queensland, disaster assistance has been extended to more areas to help residents and local councils.
