The Queensland Disaster Management Research Framework

The Queensland Disaster Management Research Framework (DMRF) supports collaboration between the tertiary and disaster management sectors and promotes the use of research by disaster managers across Queensland Disaster Management Arrangements (QDMA).

The purpose of the DMRF is to:

• Develop a coordinated approach to undertaking, managing and sharing research
• Support the development of strategic research priorities for the disaster management sector
• Promote engagement between government and the tertiary sector
• Promote transitions between research and practice

The DMRF focuses on the development of relationships between researchers and decision makers/industry sectors.

The DMRF adopts a peer driven, collaborative engagement approach, enabled by IGEM through the Disaster Management Act 2003 s.16C(g) and (i) and Chapter 10 of the Queensland State Disaster Management Plan.

The DMRF includes:

• Knowledge brokering
• Research mapping and gap analysis
• The Researcher Register
• The Research Advisory Panel

• Knowledge exchange activities e.g., Research Snapshots
