GenWest, in partnership with the Maribyrnong Community Recovery Committee and Maribyrnong City Council, has produced a companion webinar to Flood Insurance: A Maribyrnong Community Initiative—a new guide designed to support the local community in preparing for future flood events.
The webinar was held on Tuesday 1 July 2025 and was facilitated by GenWest’s Manager of Resilient Communities, Shweta Kawatra Dakin. The guide and webinar both offer practical, plain-language information and real-life case studies for anyone impacted by flooding.
Panelists included representatives from:
- The Insurance Council of Australia
- WestJustice
- Financial Counselling Victoria
- And community members with lived experience of the 2022 flood
This webinar is part of the Maribyrnong Insurance Project, a collaborative initiative between the Maribyrnong Community Recovery Committee, Maribyrnong City Council, and GenWest.
