N2 - In 2015, Ground Up researchers at Charles Darwin University interviewed 47 Darwin 'long-grassers' at eight different sites. The research was part of a larger project commissioned by the Northern Territory Natural Disaster Resilience Program, through which the Northern Territory Emergency Services (NTES) develop plans in collaboration with other agencies for disaster resilience, management and preparedness. We spoke with Larrakia, Tiwi, Yolŋu and Desert people living in Darwin and Palmerston who, in the wet season, frequently experience severe and extreme weather events. These conversations explored their experiences of bad weather and cyclones in order to identify areas and determinants of vulnerability from their own perspectives.
