The Emory International Law Review and Emory’s Center for International and Comparative Law present A Worldwide Response: An Examination of International Law Frameworks in the Aftermath of Natural Disasters Jan. 27, 2011.
The symposium will analyze how nations can balance the need for receiving timely assistance from worldwide organizations with their goal of retaining sovereignty in the days following a disaster. As countries struggle to rebuild, is it appropriate for international law to play a role in managing the chaos? Panelists, who have visited and assisted in many disaster zones, will debate new disaster preparedness guidelines and the policy implications of having the international community assume a more prominent role in disaster relief. Panelists also will focus their remarks on specific aspects of disaster law, such as how tragic events impact housing rights, children, healthcare and education.
