This is the first qualitative study on emergency management mechanism to heatwaves in Australia. It will also explore relevant emergency and health specific adaptation strategies for heatwaves in different population settings. The results will help relevant government agencies for policy-making, such as public service and resource allocation, infrastructure establishment, disaster prevention and response including establishing the national heatwaves response system. They will also help relevant industry for their adaptation to heatwaves, ie aged care and energy industries. The results will also benefit local communities, especially those from disadvantaged groups such as indigenous Australians and aged population.

这是澳大利亚首次对热浪应急管理机制进行定性研究。它还将探讨在不同人群环境中应对热浪的相关应急和健康适应战略。研究结果将有助于相关政府机构制定政策，如公共服务和资源分配，基础设施建设，灾害预防和应对，包括建立国家热浪响应系统。它们还将帮助相关行业适应热浪，即老年护理和能源行业。研究结果也将使当地社区受益，特别是土著澳大利亚人和老年人等弱势群体。
