Abstract

Recognizing the need to bring together the diverse set of stakeholders involved in the medical and public health preparedness response, The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Health and Medicine Division, established the Forum on Medical and Public Health Preparedness for Catastrophic Events, the Forum, in 2007, to engage leaders from across governmental, non-governmental, and private sectors, i.e. federal agencies, private foundations, the academic community, state and local public health authorities, and professional associations. Through its quarterly meetings and public workshops, the Forum provides a venue where its members, other leaders from the public health and healthcare preparedness communities, and members of the public can have candid discussions about issues of mutual interest.
