Government’s role for recovery from a disaster

Last month, I joined the speed talk sessions at the Institute of Public Administration Australia NSW Conference and made a brief presentation about how government and citizens have worked together to recover from the disaster of 11 March 2011.

The 2014 IPAA NSW conference focused on the theme of Transforming our future: the changing face of the Public Sector. The program opened with an exploration of the mega trends that will shape society’s future and then explored the international and national perspectives on public sector reform. The speed talk sessions have been designed to present a provocative perspective on how citizens and government work together to shape society.

In my presentation, I emphasised that for recovery from a disaster, citizens and the private sector must play a leading role. The Government’s role is to develop a well organised road map, to coordinate the recovery process, to appoint duties to appropriate parties, to provide necessary support, to scrap red tape and above all to work together with the people to lift the dampened spirits. I hope my presentation helped the attendees understand that the collaboration between the government and citizens is the key to recovery from a disaster.

  •  環境問題への取組を調査するため、7月下旬~8月上旬にかけて滋賀県立彦根工業高等学校の高校生1名および引率者1名がオーストラリアを訪問し、クレアシドニー事務所は、7月29日にはオーストラリアの概要(文化、風習等)についてブリーフィングを実施し、7月31日にはブリスベンの訪問先企業へのアテンド行いました。

    ブリスベンの訪問先においては、カーボンニュートラルの観点から、カギケノリという海藻を用いて畜産動物が排出するメタンガスを減少させる取り組みについての情報を得ることができました。生徒が、将来は自らも環境のための取り組みを実施したいとの思いから、積極的にミーティングに臨んでいる姿が印象的でした。

    当事務所は今回、ブリーフィング及びアテンドのほか、ブリスベンの訪問先企業に対するアポイントメント取得のサポートも行いました。
     クレアシドニー事務所は、今後もオーストラリアでの調査に取り組む日本の自治体の活動を支援していきます。
