• AIDR Annual Stakeholder Survey

  • AIDR is seeking to understand the information, guidance, tools, learning and connections people need to support their work in disaster risk reduction and resilience.

  • Your responses will help AIDR to identify current needs and gaps, improve its products and activities, and inform future priorities.

    The survey is anonymous and should not take longer than 10 minutes. It has 3 sections focussing you and your sector, engagament with AIDR's resources over the last 12 months and how AIDR can support your work.

    We welcome your feedback. Please feel free to share your honest experiences and perspectives. We ask that responses remain respectful and constructive so that all feedback can be meaningfully considered by AIDR. Please ensure any comments are respectful, relevant to the questions, and do not include personal, confidential or identifying information about yourself or others.

    A summary of the findings will be published on the Australian Disaster Resilience Knowledge Hub.

    Participants who complete the survey and choose to enter the prize draw will have the chance to win a $250 Visa gift card. The survey closes on 2nd of November 2026.
