Where does community resilience and emergency planning meet?
Information
In Autumn 2011, the ‘Exploring Community Resilience’ report identified some ‘hot issues’ for practitioners.
One issue that was raised is about how emergency planning and bottom-up community resilience initiatives can work better together.
To introduce this topic, CoP member Wendy Graham, Director of Disaster Welfare Services in the New South Wales (Australia), will contribute to a seminar in Dunfermline, March 19th ( expresilienceseminarmar19th.pdf). Places are limited to 20 - inquire to nick@carnegieuk.org

Comment by Debbie Brooker-Evans on Tuesday -
It would be really useful if there were some notes or copies of presentations from this seminar as I'm based in Plymouth in Devon and Dunfermline is almost an ocean away from us so will not be able to attend, but would be really interested in hearing from previous experiences. I am a local authority emergency planning officer and have been tasked with trying to initiate a community resilience programme in my area and would really like to understand how other people have set about this task. I am conscious that my first job is to map existing community networks and what work is already going on in our communities before "reinventing the wheel" so as to speak.
