NavSpace was commissioned to enable completion of an Interactive Service Directory
Website to support service response and community members in the recovery of communities impacted by the North East VIC Bushfires and COVID-19..
In response to the 2019-20 Victorian Bushfires numerous services were funded to support community recovery and postvention support. Keeping track of all stakeholders and their service offerings involved in recovery efforts proved difficult. Directories quickly became out of date and something more long term was required.
The recovery and emotional wellbeing committees in the North East Regions outlined the need for a more strategic and longer term solution that can remain current and versatile in the ever-changing environment.
