Past:
Participant International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP)
During this three-week individual program I focused on Crisis Management. The IVLP has taken me to the cities of Washington DC, New York, New Orleans, Baton Rouge and Sacramento.
I have gathered a lot of information on the following topics:
- Explore the U.S. government’s structure for policy formulation, particularly with respect to crisis management.
- Examine planning and coordination of policies and procedures for major public events such as the Olympics, July 4th on the National Mall and New Year’s Eve at Times Square.
- Review the various phases of U.S. crisis management, including risk analysis, early warning systems, continuity of government and operations, procedures and coordination of government entities during terrorist attacks, crowd control and crisis communication.
- Focus on effective planning for and management of natural hazards and civil emergencies such as floods, hurricanes, major forest fires, and earthquakes.
- Gain academic and think tank perspectives on emergency management training, planning and implementation.
- Early Warning Systems; The Netherlands is working on NL Alert, an early warning system using mobile telephone structure and I looked at existing early warning systems in the U.S.
- Managing Transboundary Crises; the oil spillage in New Orleans (Deep Horizon) is an example of a transboundary crisis. It would be interesting to discuss State level coordination and critical infrastructure.
