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.

In this session, we cover early detection and warning systems with a focus on the threats and hazards in the Asia-Pacific region and highlight some of the lessons learned from recent acts of terrorism and infrastructure failure. International, national and local perspectives on response will demonstrate how coordination, communications, operability across different disciplines and units of government can make all the difference in saving lives, reducing injuries, and minimizing losses and disruption.

How do cities which face known hazards prepare for the inevitable? What is the role of insurance, government regulation, resilient design, and planning for rebuilding?
