ABSTRACT
Events that include the 9/11 attacks, the 2005 Hurricane Katrina or the 2011 Sendai Earthquake have drawn attention to how individuals, organizations or societies can improve crisis preparedness, resilience and recovery. In all scenarios, collaboration between professional responders, public administrations, citizens is critical to response, and needs to be further understood and explored. In this workshop we will bring together academics from various disciplines as well as reflective practitioners to discuss challenges and approaches for improving intra- and inter-organizational collaboration in crisis situations.
