This year has proven to be particularly challenging for Disaster and Emergency Management Professionals, and the coming months promise to be equally difficult as many in our community work through long recovery processes across the country. On behalf of CRHNet, we would like to acknowledge all the hard work and commitment demonstrated by our academic partners, practitioners, industry and community partners, and all those with a vested interest in Disaster Risk Reduction. We also wish to recognize that this difficult period impacts the availability of human, financial and time resources for our members.
With all of this in mind, the Board of Directors has unanimously agreed to suspend our previously postponed Symposium event scheduled for February 2024. Over the coming months, we will shift our focus on exploring new strategic partnerships, develop additional engagement and information-sharing opportunities , expand our membership, and clearly define our new strategic priorities. This work will take place so that we can ensure the continuing relevance of our network in a constantly evolving field of research and practice.
