Emergencies are characterized by their ‘un-ness’‘…unexpected, 
unscheduled, unplanned, unprecedented and definitely unpleasant’ 
(Crichton 2003) – they are unexpected and unknowable in their specific 
unfolding. However good plans and scenarios may be, uncertainty is a 
defining feature in emergency events. Through this conference theme we 
invite Tracks and submissions focusing on the technologies, procedures, 
approaches, methods and tools that can be employed to improve crisis 
response in an increasingly complex and dynamic world. Creative and 
critical reflections are welcome.
