Resilience in a Changing World

Crises are becoming more complex, lasting longer and becoming increasingly unpredictable. What does this mean for your organisation? In this presentation, Edith van der Reijden, Director of Risk and Crisis Management at the Rotterdam-Rijnmond Safety Region, explains how the focus is shifting from incident response to strengthening resilience.

Using current examples, such as setting up emergency support hubs and working with public and private partners, she shows how we can build a more resilient society. Resilience is not the responsibility of emergency services alone; it also requires organisations to be prepared and self-reliant.

What can you do today to strengthen your organisation’s business continuity? You will leave with concrete insights and practical tools you can put into action.
