Barwon South West is located in south-west Victoria. The area features quiet coastal towns, a deep-water port, farming, rainforest and the scenic Great Ocean Road. Four local councils in the region have come together to tackle the challenges posed by climate change. One of these, Warrnambool City Council, undertook a procurement process for coastal assessment services to support decision-makers who may need to take into account climate change and sea-level rise in their planning decisions. To facilitate this process, Warrnambool Council utilised the Working with consultants information available on CoastAdapt.
