Lifeline Connections for Resilience: Don't Miss the 9th CRHNet Symposium

The 9th CRHNet Symposium will be held in the heart of downtown Vancouver at the Sutton Place Hotel from October 24 to 26, 2012. The theme of this year's symposium, "Building Resiliency", reflects the need to better understand the multidimensionality and complexity of resilience. Of particular interest is resilience as it pertains to populated urban areas and First Nations communities. The consistent goal of the CRHNet symposiums is to contribute to the creation of a disaster resilient society through inter-disciplinary and inter-jurisdictional dialogue and collaboration among practitioners, policy makers, researchers, and academics.
