Summary of research
The Integrated Regional Vulnerability Assessment (IRVA) for Climate Change helps identify key aspects of NSW regions that are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. The guide and summary reports were published by the NSW Government from 2012 to 2016. The guide can help NSW governments and stakeholders to identify vulnerabilities in their region, to inform plans to adapt to climate change. The summary reports capture key findings from stakeholder workshops across NSW regions, and can be used by local governments and groups to better understand some of the vulnerabilities in their region.
