SAMU First Response Joins “International Efforts on Disaster Resilience” at the Australian Embassy
February 12th , 2025
SAMU First Response (SFR) attended a coordination meeting at the Australian Embassy in Washington D.C., thanks to the collaboration of DC Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (DC VOAD).
The primary objective of this meeting was to coordinate a series of bi-monthly conferences scheduled to begin in April 2024 and continue through October. This initiative aims to foster dialogue on resilience in the context of natural disasters.
This meeting marks an important first step in laying the foundation for the project, which is currently in its early stages. The selection of panelists is ongoing, and SFR has proposed Andrés Rodríguez Holst, International Disaster Response Manager of SAMU Foundation, as a speaker for one of the upcoming sessions.
This initiative represents a significant step toward international cooperation on disaster resilience, and SFR looks forward to contributing to its development and success.
