Experts like Tim Manning, an adjunct professor in the Executive Master’s in Humanitarian Crisis & Emergency Management and Master’s in Emergency & Disaster Management programs, emphasize that today’s emergencies require more than just response—they demand proactive risk reduction, humanitarian support, and global collaboration. https://scs.georgetown.edu/news-and-events/article/9912/emergency-management-adjusts-riskier-world
