Dear Friends and Colleagues,

It is a great privilege and an honor for us, the founders of the new IPRED community to be founding members.

We are the first international online community for people from all over the world who deal with Healthcare System Preparedness & Response to Emergencies & Disasters (IPRED).

The community is built on a special platform and provides a unique opportunity for professionals worldwide to learn, share and present the latest findings and insights regarding health system readiness, preparedness, and functioning in disasters and emergencies.

IPRED's community will be supported as in previous years by The Israeli Ministry of Health and the IDF Home Front Command. We will build the foundation for IPRED VII conference as we have successfully done so since 2010.

IPRED's Community will provide a platform for networking with the world’s leading experts. The Community will focus and discuss best practices, and State of the Art preparedness for emergencies and disaster events. In addition, there will be non-formal joint learning/ webinars, based on the experiences of the participants.

The Community will gather delegates from all areas of health care and emergency management, worldwide.

We will discuss the challenges of managing emergencies in a changing reality affected by urbanization, growth of population, technology, data analysis, overuse and lack of medical resources, and social media flooded with “fake news”.

The Community platform will feature highly interactive, stimulating, and multidisciplinary discussions and webinars as well as articles and group discussions on various subjects that belong to the disaster world.

This Community will keep you updated till the next IPRED conference and will stay online during and after the conference so we can keep our membership connected and up to date.

The IPRED website is open for the submission of articles that concern Preference and disaster management that we will publish on the community site.

We hope you will honor us with your presence by joining us in the community - We look forward to hosting you as members.

“Being together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success”
