Recommendations for further investigations during later stages of the WARCCAP project include:
More detailed analysis of vulnerable groups is required to ascertain the extent of need in the
future. On the supply side, health related infrastructure and services across the Study Area
needs to be examined in detail to assess its adequacy and reliability to cope with likely service
demands associated future climatic conditions.
It is recommended that the development of the Zone Emergency Management Plan for
Western Adelaide be closely monitored as the WARCCAP project progresses, and that its
directions inform the integrated vulnerability assessment. It will be important to assess the
Zone Emergency Management Plan against the climate projections contained within this report
as well as risks and vulnerabilities articulated in subsequent stages of the project. This will help
to identify any gaps in emergency management planning.
In order to fully understand the value of social infrastructure and services, Stage 2 of the
WARCCAP project should investigate social infrastructure and services in more detail including
a full break down of all asset valuations.
