The Action Collaborative on Disaster Research (ACDR) is associated with the Forum on Medical and Public Health Preparedness for Disasters and Emergencies of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. The ACDR will convene a free, virtual symposium of government, academic, clinical and community stakeholders, and subject matter experts to scope perspectives, information, and scientific needs related to disasters affecting child populations. Meeting discussions will support high-level prioritization of pediatric disaster science foci and opportunities for alignment and synergy of scientific efforts to collective and effectively advance pediatric disaster science; as well as set the stage for capacity building around evidence-based practices and scientific discovery to improve outcomes of children.
When: August 1, 2022 (8:30 AM - 4:30 PM ET) and August 2, 2022 (9:00 AM - 4:00 PM)
