Announcement<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

In recent years, the general public has developed a growing understanding of the fact that the Pacific Northwest might be severely affected by a range of serious disasters including potentially catastrophic incidents, for example, a rupture of tectonic plates along the Cascadia Subduction Zone resulting in an earthquake of magnitude 9 plus.

Professional responders in the area have fully engaged in planning and preparing, so to be able to cope with such an incident once it happens.\u00a0

During this winter quarter the UW Information School is holding a series of one-hour invited talks featuring leading emergency and disaster managers of the Pacific Northwest. The formal presentation of some 40 minutes in duration will be followed by a question-and-answer session of about 20 minutes.

The speakers will address in particular challenges for responders in the context of \u201csituational awareness\u201d and \u201cmanagerial coordination.\u201d The speaker series will be open to the public. \u00a0

The speaker series is part of the INFX 598 research seminar conducted by Prof. Hans J Scholl of the Universitry of Washington\u2019s Information School.

Since space is limited, RSVPs are required. The speaker series is held at Seattle Campus in Smith Hall Room 102 on Fridays from 1:30 to 2:30 pm.
