Preparing for: wildfire season, it's not just a fire problem
By Emergency Services Times
Wildfires hit the headlines more frequently than ever before and while the fire and rescue service lead the response, mitigation and prevention strategies require a wider collaborative approach.
In this webinar, we discuss why wildfires are everyone’s problem and that without ownership by those who can influence change, the problem will simply remain until the next crisis prompts a response.
Key topics:
- Understand how services can embrace collective action
- Explore innovative wildfire prevention and mitigation strategies
- Examine long-term solutions of crisis response
Speakers include:
Chair:
Catherine Levin, Editor, Emergency Services Times
Guest speakers:
Jim McNeil, National Fire Chiefs Council, Wildfire lead
Guillermo Rein, Professor of Fire Science, Imperial College London
Rob Gazzard, Wildfire and Contingency Planning, Forestry Commission
