What was it all about?

This project, which ran from 2017 to 2018, was tasked with identifying potential risks and threats to the Australian mushroom industry, updating the mushroom industry’s crisis management plan, and providing effective training to industry personnel involved in crisis management. Its work is one component in ensuring a resilient mushroom industry, improving the industry’s ability to strategically prepare for, respond to and recover from any risks that may arise.

Working with key industry representatives, it has improved the industry’s understanding of crisis management principles and procedures, increased awareness of crisis management arrangements for the industry, and provided an intuitive approach for identifying, assessing and responding to potential crises using effective communication strategies.
