The Sydney Resilience Strategy was developed by Sydney’s 33 metropolitan councils and 100 Resilient Cities and outlines a set of tangible actions that the city can take to build resilience and strengthen its ability to adapt, survive and thrive in the face of climate change, global uncertainty and local stresses.
