The National Centre for Outdoor Risk and Readiness is a collaborative initiative by Outward Bound Australia for outdoor practitioners across Australia. In 2020 Outward Bound lost 3 operational areas to bushfires with devastating impact – the clean-up was a massive job; insurance under-delivered and accessing government support was time consuming and resource-demanding.

Our aim is to build capacity and capability to be able to predict, prepare for, mitigate & respond to events, to learn and adapt to be more resilient and safer in the face of a changing climate, so that all Australians and visitors, wherever they live and whatever their age, ability and cultural background, are able to enjoy and benefit from being in the outdoors and feel safe in doing so.
