Disaster and Emergency Management as a Complex Adaptive System: Relationships, Brokerage, and Emergent Actors

Thursday May 14, 2026 12:00pm - 12:30pm MDT

PIC 232

Disaster and emergency management (DEM) is increasingly complex. Understanding who makes up the DEM system, the roles they perform, and the relationships which influence system capability and performance - before, during, and after a disaster - is essential to building societal resilience. This presentation critically examines DEM as a complex adaptive system, using New Zealand as a case study.
