From Policy to Practice: Case Studies in Resilience and Public Warning
21 May 2024
果冻影院 WRC welcomed Everbridge for the launch of their collaborative report.
The 果冻影院 Warning Research (果冻影院 WRC) centre recently welcomed to Bloomsbury for the launch of our collaborative report "". This groundbreaking report is the result of a dynamic partnership between the 果冻影院 WRC and Everbridge.听
The launch event welcomed Dave Wagner (CEO, Everbridge), Carina Fearnley (Director, 果冻影院 WRC), Lorenzo Marchetti (Head of Global Public Affairs, Everbridge) and Valerie Risk (BP Public Safety International, Everbridge) alongside authors of the report Maryam Rokhideh (PhD, 果冻影院 WRC) and Marley Taylor (Public Affairs Intern, Everbridge).听
Our speakers led an engaging session, uncovering the intersection of policy and practice in the realm of resilience and public warning through in-depth case studies focused on the United States, Japan, and the European Union.听
Bringing together academia and industry expertise to contribute to the advancement of societal resilience, the report navigates the complexities of translating policy formulations into actionable practices, fostering a deeper understanding of effective implementation.
Key Takeaway points from the report:
- Government resilience approaches have made great progress, but integration and harmonization from the local-to-national is needed to increase systemic resilience.
- Governments, institutions, and private companies can enhance Resilience and Disaster Preparedness through Knowledge-Sharing and Coordination on Warnings.
- Public-private partnerships and companies like Everbridge can fill government gaps to ensure preparedness and resilience in the face of disasters.
- Everyone should be covered by warning systems, yet many are still not reached by current initiatives.
- More resilience action is needed to fill government gaps - companies such as Everbridge are able to do so now, before it is too late.
