About

Canadian Risk and Hazards Network (CRHNet) is a not-for-profit organization established in 2003 to promote and strengthen disaster risk reduction and emergency management in Canada. The Network creates an environment for hazards research, education and emergency management practitioner communities to effectively share knowledge and innovative approaches that reduce disaster vulnerability.

CRHNet’s theme of ‘Reducing Risk through Partnerships’ calls attention to the need for partnerships to enhance the understanding of, and provide tools for, the development of comprehensive programs to mitigate, prepare for, respond to and recover from all types of disasters – natural, technological or human-induced.

Mission

CRHNet brings together the disaster risk management community to increase resiliency through the transfer of knowledge, the building of relationships, and the exchange of best practices.

The goal of the Canadian Risk and Hazards Network is to create a safer and more resilient Canada. This can be better accomplished if you join.

Your engagement can assist and contribute to CRHNet’s continued development of a diverse and vibrant network of organizations, people, academics and practitioners, responders, and more, who mitigate risk and hazards and improve emergency and disaster management. We strive to help the industry grow with these efforts.

Through active engagement you can contribute and reap practical benefits that include collaboration, innovation and extended network of resources.

The CRHNet acknowledges its location on the historical, ancestral, and present-day home, often unceded, of the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit. We recognize the enduring presence and deep traditional knowledge of Indigenous communities and their connection to this land. Our commitment to reconciliation is grounded in respect, listening, and learning from Indigenous voices, stories, and perspectives, which bring instrumental knowledge in building disaster-resilient communities. We honour the past, present, and future of these communities and strive to build a more inclusive and equitable society for all.
