Nina leads the Disaster Resilience & Recovery team at the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) in Australia; a portfolio of granting and place-based development programs across remote, rural, and regional Australia. During 2021/22 FRRR supported nearly 1000 community projects across Australia, over which 60% of which were related to climate or disaster related impacts or preparedness.

Based in regional New South Wales, and having experienced floods last October in her local community, Nina works both at a strategic and practical level to build capability in communities in meeting the challenges of managing future climates.
