You are invited to join the Society's Disaster Risk Management Professional Practice Group for the next event focusing on disaster risk in the humanitarian sphere.

This panel discussion brings together four experts in the field of humanitarian information management to discuss where IM and GIS can provide clarity in evolving situations. The panel is hosted by Chris Ewing who works with Aon Impact Forecasting and volunteers for MapAction. Chris will be accompanied by Luis Velasquez, Steve Penson, Luke Caley, and Nicki McGoh.

The Society aims to provide automatically-generated captions for all event recordings. The captions appear as text at the bottom of the video which you can toggle on and off. The accuracy of automatically-generated captions varies depending on the audio quality, any specialist language used and the speaker. They are therefore are unlikely to be 100% accurate and the Society does not edit or correct automatically-generated captions.
