As climate change continues to increase frequency of extreme weather across the country, Canada’s disaster and emergency management (DEM) field must rise to the challenge. The question facing the industry is: What does the future of disaster and emergency management in Canada look like?

Presented in partnership with the Canadian Journal of Emergency Management, DEMvolution will gather a group of disaster and emergency management professionals to discuss the evolution of the field and where we go from here. Speakers will cover a range of themes, inspiring lively discussions around standards, core competencies, education, policy, roadblocks and opportunities facing the profession.
