Initial Insights - Kyogle Shire
So far we have collated the following findings from 2 workshops in Kyogle:
The Imagine Northern Rivers workshop series was held in Kyogle in March and May 2026. In total, X people participated representing the civic, business, not-for-profit, government, resilience and cultural sectors, as well as general residents. Participants responded to a series of questions designed to elicit an understanding of what a regenerative, safe and adaptive future could be like within the lifetime of a child born today. Two workshops were held in Kyogle and responses from the two sessions have been combined into a single Kyogle dataset for this analysis.
1. What does a safe, regenerative & adaptive future look like?
Possible Future of Climate Adaptation (2035)
Participants generated 281 responses received to this prompt: "Imagine... It's 2035 and a child born today is turning 10 years old. The outcomes of 10+ years of work by government and community to adapt to climate change and strengthen resilience is becoming visible around them. What has changed in the design of our built environment and our relationship with the natural environment, that is strengthening our resilience to an increase in temperature, severe fire weather, sea level rise & changing rainfall patterns? ... What changes do you notice in how your child's family is living and moving around in the world, that is contributing to shared resilience and regeneration?"
More data to be published soon.
