Our Vision 

Our vision and hopes for the Disaster Medicine Special Interest Group include an increased and active membership, a platform for shared resources, a place that we can ask each other questions and advertise upcoming conferences and workshops, and a truly global connection. With that in mind we would also like to hear your ideas and suggestions. Please take a few minutes to complete this questionnaire.
