Brisbane’s river is both its greatest asset as well as presenting its greatest challenge.
Flooding has not only changed the face of the city, but it has also driven innovation in planning and engineering to protect against future events.
Explore nation leading projects – Waterfront Brisbane and Queen’s Wharf engineered and designed to withstand the force of Mother Nature and hear insights from policy makers as to the framework designed to support and facilitate resilience and innovation in the river city as we seek to manage our everchanging climate.
