In all the media and Twitter coverage, I've seen the word 'looting' only once, and no mention of social unrest, fights, or conflict with authorities even as info was uncertain and water running out.

(Everyone's pissed at the Prime Minister though for going on holidays to Hawaii and then throwing an expensive NYE bash at his mansion in Sydney to watch the pretty fireworks while whole towns burned. They've got a fair point hey)

These Australian communities (like Lake Conjola and Mallacoota) are incredibly well prepared, socially and practically, to 'pull together' in a disaster. And Australian culture promotes this; we're proud of our resilience in a crisis.

But - I think about my inner-city neighbourhood in the Bay Area and I know disaster management would be much harder there. Lack of trust in authorities, more social tensions, language barriers, more social inequality.

In a crisis, when you run out of fuel or don't know which route is safe to travel, your life could be saved by a stranger. It's millions of these little generosities which stop crises from escalating into riots and civil breakdown. We keep trusting each other.

The media is instrumental in creating this trust - telling stories of generosity, of heroism, of community resilience. Not just for today's disaster, but for tomorrow's. Not just in your town, but in mine. We expect that everyone else expects good behaviour, and rise to it.

It's now 2020, and let's be honest, these kinds of disasters will only get more frequent. An area of Australia the size of Belgium has burned in the last two months.

I worry, because Australia has a collective memory of many stories of community resilience. Bushfires, floods,
#Illridewithyou from the Lindt cafe attack. But America has Katrina, preppers, and a broken relationship between police and vulnerable communities.1 reply 7 proslijeđenih tweetova 40 korisnika označava da im se sviđaPrikaži ovu nit -
Two questions: How can communities implement emergency comms infrastructure, that everybody can use? What is actually being implemented now? (No futuristic blockchain mesh networks, unless my grandma can use them, thanks)

Second, how can places with pessimistic social stories about disasters turn them around? How could Oakland, for example, become a place that believes in itself during an earthquake - where authorities are trusted and trustworthy? How can media help?

Household emergency preparedness is only one component; if you're surrounded by thousands or millions of unprepared people who are hungry, confused and scared, your own supplies and info mean little. 'Community resilience' is about common knowledge.

(Also, paid and volunteer firefighters have been fighting nonstop for two months. Several have died already. I'm talking about media and social tech solutions, but I'm also very grateful for the people in the embers, breathing smoke and defending lives with their bare hands.)
