This year’s meeting prepares each company to understand better the crucial partnerships all organizations
must rely on in the first few hours of a crisis in their workplace and, secondly, the importance of integrating
partners during critical hours of the response. Day One will focus on the lived experience of survivors and
responders and the criticality of knowing who your partners are and how you should work with them.
