This conference focuses on current global health risks, and how best to prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters in order to reduce human health impacts. The conference is aimed to help participants understand the nature of global risks, learn risk management strategies to prepare for disruptive events, and identify the best prevention methods in disaster management and public health. It will also provide a forum for the exchange of information between leading academics and partners in disaster management.
