CROMP - Climate Risk and Opportunity Management Program

This program is designed to build climate risk knowledge across the Australian Government in support of the Climate adaptation in Australia - DCCEEW. 

​Australia is experiencing the impacts of our changing climate in all aspects of our economy, environment, and society. These impacts are expected to increase over the coming decades, posing greater threats to our way of life.

The Australian Government is working to build climate considerations into our business-as-usual practices, to ensure the policies, programs and services provided to Australian communities are resilient and adaptable. Climate risk management is an emerging area of enterprise risk management. It refers to the readiness of organisations to prepare for and respond to the physical and transitional impacts of climate change. Considering climate risks as part of enterprise risk management is critical to ensuring that the Australian public sector continues to deliver its core objectives in the face of a changing climate.
