From a modest first census of just 177 people to a total population of over 4.8 million and growing by some 327 people daily, Melbourne, the capital city of Victoria, Australia is on track to pass Sydney as Australia鈥檚 largest city within the next decade.

So, now鈥檚 the time to lay the right foundation for a more resilient future 鈥 and 网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区 is partnering across the city to make it happen.
