1. Physical Resilience (Built)
   Enable Community Group assets to be built-back and bettered to withstand current and future disaster risks.
2. Nature-based Resilience (Environment)
   Regenerate and strengthen the capacity of the natural environment to respond to ongoing climate change, and resist damage to community assets.
3. Social Resilience (Human and Social)
   Build the capacity of Community Groups to understand, plan, prepare for and manage infrastructure to withstand and quickly recover from climate impacts and support social wellbeing and population retention in regional communities.
4. Community Energy Resilience (Energy)
   Support community energy resources that create shared value and build resilience to current and future disaster risks.
5. Affordable Sustainable Mobility
   Support greater access to EV’s, micro-mobility and mobility-as-a-service solutions for marginalized groups.
