Watford | Disaster relief conference

Conference 8.30 am-5 pm, 7 Dec - 25 Oct 2018
South East

Reconstruction and development

The need for the humanitarian organisations to engage more with the private sector and vice versa – including environment professionals, financial services, manufacturers and suppliers – in post-disaster reconstruction and development is well known. However, there is still need for guidance on how our sectors can better work together.

This one-day conference is an opportunity for the private and humanitarian sectors to meet and consider how to work together to support and develop local capacity for longer term resilience. It will take the form of presentations and collaborative workshops discussing various issues related to collaboration between the humanitarian, academic, and private partners in order to build local capacity in both disaster risk reduction and post-disaster response and reconstruction.
