Predictable, Preventable: Community Work to Reduce Disasters

Mon. 2:00-3:30 p.m., Centennial F

Moving away from postdisaster lessons learned and unmet needs reports to prevention is the next frontier in disaster thinking. Audience members should bring ideas for working proactively with the highest-risk communities—nothing will be considered too off the wall—and learn more about innovative partnerships with local leaders. Panelists will detail the work their organizations are doing to reduce future risk through preparation and response.
