Uncover the strategies needed to develop and improve emergency response and recovery plans for the public and private sector

Governments and organisations around the world are facing an ever-increasing host of threats including natural disasters, due to continuously increasing weather abnormalities, cross-border health risks, un-intentional accidents, terrorism and cyber threats.

To protect the population and safeguard organisations from the impact of these incidents, effective planning and preparation, preparedness, response and recovery strategies are required; not to mention an ever-growing requirement to enhance collaboration within organisations and between multiple stakeholders.

This is why IQPC is proud to announce the 3rd Annual Disaster Management & Crisis Response Middle East Conference, which will take place on 24 - 27 April 2011 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

The last two events attracted the region’s authorities and private sector, as they demonstrated their commitment to emergency management. The 2011 conference will continue to provide a forum for key discussions and exchange of ideas on best practice and the opportunities for further collaboration.

Join the region’s leading emergency management and business continuity experts as they meet to map out the way forward to ensuring the effective handling of any natural or man-made disasters and the successful continuity of critical and day-to-day operations.

Key issues to be discussed include:

  • Emergency management and crisis response – an overview
  • Emergency preparedness and risk mitigation for the public and the private sector
  • Mitigating the impact of disasters and crises with effective planning
  • Educating disaster management practitioners
  • International disaster recovery
  • Effective emergency and crisis response strategies
  • Medical advances in emergency response
  • Improving business continuity

Brand new for 2011!
