Voiceover:

00:00:05.165 --> 00:00:07.925
Victoria is one of the most bushfire prone areas in the

1
00:00:07.925 --> 00:00:09.485
world, and the frequency

2
00:00:09.485 --> 00:00:11.245
and severity of bushfires is increasing.

3
00:00:12.035 --> 00:00:13.845
Because bushfires affect everyone,

4
00:00:14.065 --> 00:00:15.605
we all have a role in preparing for

5
00:00:15.665 --> 00:00:18.085
and managing it. To help support this

6
00:00:18.085 --> 00:00:19.845
unified response to bushfires,

7
00:00:20.095 --> 00:00:22.925
we've developed Victoria's Bushfire Management Strategy.

8
00:00:23.585 --> 00:00:25.965
It brings together the work we are already doing

9
00:00:26.235 --> 00:00:28.645
with the work we plan to do over the next 10 years

10
00:00:28.905 --> 00:00:32.485
to create a safer and more resilient Victoria for all of us.

11
00:00:33.635 --> 00:00:36.725
Land and fire agencies play a lead role in preparing for

12
00:00:36.905 --> 00:00:40.005
and responding to bushfires, but they can't do it alone.

13
00:00:40.545 --> 00:00:42.325
We need the knowledge, experience,

14
00:00:42.505 --> 00:00:45.165
and expertise of Victoria's communities,

15
00:00:46.495 --> 00:00:50.085
local councils, businesses and industries,

16
00:00:51.545 --> 00:00:54.885
and Traditional Owners to make sure we're working together

17
00:00:55.225 --> 00:00:56.965
to manage bushfire risk.

18
00:00:57.945 --> 00:00:59.325
If everyone plays their part,

19
00:00:59.735 --> 00:01:01.285
we'll be in a much better position

20
00:01:01.345 --> 00:01:02.845
to manage future bushfires.

21
00:01:04.235 --> 00:01:05.645
