What happens socially when the status quo is disrupted? How do seemingly everyday individuals get involved with life saving activities? How do socioeconomic inequalities jeopardize the security of a place and how do you remedy rifts before they arise? The social dynamics of emergencies are fascinating. From the more conventional response infrastructure to the informal actors who step up to play a role in emergency response and recovery activities, having an understanding of the social realities of an emergency will go a long way in replacing fear with capability.     

This event is part of our Weekly Readiness Series, a weekly dialogue about what “Readiness” is and how you can go about taking proactive steps to becoming more capable. This series is designed to help you welcome readiness as a discipline and practice into your lifestyle.

It’s not about preparing for the worst but training to live your best.
