'Our world has shifted dramatically'
It will explore evidence, and personal experience, in supporting community resilience-both as a means to strengthen communities to withstand public health crises before they occur, in times of emergency response, and in the aftermath.
"Over the past several months, our world has shifted dramatically," said a spokesperson for the organisers. "Our routines, expectations, and even our challenges have changed. What has not changed is our need for connection, our need to feel a sense of belonging, place and purposes, our desire to end isolation at work, at home, and across our lives."
