Are We Prepared for Catastrophic Events?
We face the possibility of natural disasters, terrorism, and technological failures and “cascading” events such as the earthquake/tsunami/nuclear disaster in Japan. This conference brings together speakers, practitioners, and scholars experienced in responding to, recovering from, and rebuilding communities that have experienced disaster. Catastrophic events require multi-disciplinary, engaged “whole community” efforts. Co-sponsored by government, military, scientific, academic, and non-governmental training and research organizations, we invite you to join us for a day of “thinking the unthinkable” and planning for resilience. Each panel will have keynote presentations and responses from our local community.
Respond. Recover. Rebuild. Thursday, June 7, 2012 at the University of Hawaii.
