Guidelines for incorporating health and safety material into institutional disaster training.

Webinar, September 23, 2020, Instructor: Jody Horstman

Join architect and engineer Stephen J. Kelley to learn about disaster preparedness and response as they relate to our built environment.

Almost fifteen years after Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast, integrating spatial technologies in disaster response has become a necessity. As our technological tools improve and expand, we have many more options to ensure preservation of our resources in many forms.

There are many national, regional, and local platforms to manage emergency response. This webinar will examine some of the most important ones that involve the cultural heritage sector, and discuss how individuals and institutions can get involved in responding to disasters that affect library, museum, and archive collections.

This session will discuss findings on the needs of performing arts organizations during disasters, information on Disaster Networks that include arts organizations, and the resources of the Performing Arts Readiness project.
