The ripple effect of trauma & human response to fire within government with Mark Kettle

Kintsugi Heroes - Alpine Series

Mark Kettle shares his unique perspective in his story about the Black Summer fires in 2019-20. During the 2019-20 Black Summer bushfires, he was the Fire Advisor to the Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change.

He describes in detail what happened behind the scenes of the government's response to a major emergency in managing and reporting the fires, always mindful of their accountability to the people of Victoria. He offers insight into the human face of the government and the toll it took on everybody involved especially as COVID followed immediately after the fires, with the same teams moving straight into that challenging period.
