Leveraging Artificial Intelligence for enhanced lessons management: The RAID Model
Australian Journal of Emergency Management October 2025 edition Drawing on insights from post-event inquiries, organisational culture research and collaborative frameworks, this paper evaluates how AI can address systemic challenges in translating lessons into practice. By synthesising findings from research across 20 years, this paper demonstrates how RAID’s AI-driven approach complements existing lessons management frameworks while overcoming barriers to implementation.

Queensland Floods Commission of Inquiry 2012 Final Report 658 p. https://knowledge.aidr.org.au/media/3456/qfci-final-report-march-2012.pdf The Commission was set up fourteen months ago to enquire into seven matters arising out of the 2010/2011 floods, identified in the terms of reference as: preparation and planning for the floods by governments, agencies and the community; the adequacy of the response to the floods; management of essential services; the adequacy of forecasts and early warning systems; insurers’ performance of their responsibilities; the operation of dams; and land use planning to minimise flood impacts. It was a broad and daunting range of subject matter. Those questions had to be examined over a very large geographical area, because most of the state was affected; inquiries had to be made and hearings held in a variety of locations.
