The U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which is a key part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, is currently holding a National Preparedness Symposium which “includes stakeholders across all areas and levels of emergency management, discussing how to increase emergency preparedness in a way that builds community resiliency.”
FEMA staff will be regularly updating a blog devoted to the Symposium, which is worth following.
In light of the numerous disasters declared as a result of the recent extreme weather in the United States, it will be interesting to hear about FEMA’s plans for enhancing U.S. emergency preparedness in an uncertain climate future.
