We live in a world where emergencies, crises, risks, and hazards are part of our day-to-day planning. The Carleton University program is supported by the Emergency Management Policy, Business Continuity and Resilience Policy, and Emergency Management Framework. Through training, exercises, and awareness, the Carleton University community is better prepared to respond and recover from these events.

Do NOT stop to post to social media!
