About the series

Ready & Resilient NOW…Together is built on a line from WADEM's president: nobody needs disaster medicine until you do. The first responder is almost never a professional — it is a bystander, a shopkeeper, a neighbor, a teenager. This series exists to make that person ready.

Produced by The Force for Health Network in partnership with WADEM, the World Association for Disaster and Emergency Medicine — a body in its 49th year with members in nearly a hundred nations. Every recap here carries verbatim quotes from every speaker, and every quote links straight into the broadcast at the second it was spoken.
