Resilience Funding Arrangements

The Department of Premier and Cabinet administers whole-of-government programs that support Tasmanian communities to build resilience and reduce disaster risk. These may be delivered in partnership with other Australian and Tasmanian Government agencies.

Disaster Ready Fund

The Australian Government’s Disaster Ready Fund provides up to $200 million per year to fund projects that build resilience to prepare for, or reduce the risk of, future natural hazard impacts across Australia.

Future Drought Fund programs

The $5 billion Future Drought Fund is part of the Australian Government’s Drought Response, Resilience and Preparedness Plan.

The Tasmanian Government is coordinating the delivery of two Future Drought Fund programs in Tasmania.
