Role

Attended a workshop about how the military, private sector, and frontline groups could better prepare for disaster response together. Spoke on frontline self-organizing, distrust of government and military, and ways to interface between the groups for everyone’s benefit. Cautioned against scraping data from social media and instead suggested having a way for civilians to feed aggregated data consensually into response agencies. In addition, led breakout groups and created visual notes from the overall workshop. The visuals are now the cover of the publication put out for the event.
