I can really recommend this webinar from @GoCrisis which features the expertise from @LucyGoBag . Her knowledge in the field of crisis management is impressive, and I always learn a lot from her. Webinar here: youtu.be/_GpoaqU_oEM?si…

My new book "Disaster Memorials and Monuments" was recently published by @routledgebooks. Thanks to @LucyGoBag , @Jimlukaszewski , Kate Brady and Jay D Aronson for endorsing it.

It was great to be a guest of the podcast Notes on Resilience hosted by @ManyaChylinski . We talked about a variety of topics, including effective crisis communication, leadership under pressure and victim support. Listen here: buzzsprout.com/2070261/153853…

My book on the aftermath of disasters - with topics such as support groups, spontaneous memorials, anniversaries and monuments - is now on sale: bit.ly/humandimension…

I really enjoyed presenting at @Northeastern in Boston last week. My topic focused on crowd management, crisis communication and victim support, and we had an interesting discussion afterwards. Thanks to professor @DanielPAldrich for hosting.

@ProgressCityUSA Yes, I think I have a few copies left. Please email me at kbrataas at online dot no

@brataas Hello! Are copies of your book about EPCOT's Norway pavilion still available? I've been looking for one for ages. Thanks!

@sbrucecanada @LucyGoBag Thanks a lot, Shawna. This is a very good resource. I have actually met @ShonaWhitton on several occasions. She now lives in Copenhagen, working for the International Red Cross.

Thanks to @EMPA_Conference for a great first day at the Australia’s Disaster & Emergency Communications Conference in Brisbane. I enjoyed being a keynote speaker, and the day’s presentations were all interesting. Topics included social capital, teams’ mental health and floods.

In exactly a week, I will give a keynote presentation at the @EMPA_Conference in Brisbane. Looking forward to sharing knowledge and meeting great people from all over the world. I will also run a 3 hours' workshop on the aftermath of disasters. More info: empaaust.empa.org.au

@amandacomms So proud of you. Hope to see you in Norway soon!

Big milestone in my quest to learn Norwegian

Something to start your week. My latest #10minswith was a fascinating chat with @Conley1Edward who worked with FEMA for almost 30 years. Thanks for your time Ed. Find out what he had to say here: youtu.be/pWFXDpO_1Mg #crisiscomms #crisismanagement

@LucyGoBag You should come and visit one day! Our cabin is only 2 hours and 20 min by car from Oslo

@brataas Thank you so much Kjell and look at that for a location shot!

I can really recommend Lucy Easthope’s memoir “When the Dust Settles.” Lucy - a world-leader in disaster recovery - gives insights into past disasters and offers personal and important advice for disaster recovery. A great read, @LucyGoBag - a perfect book for Easter vacation.

My US publisher @routledgebooks is offering a 20% discount on all books for all of April.

Yesterday, the @NSMassCasualty released its final report on the mass shooting in Nova Scotia in 2020. It consists of 7 volumes of reports. I was really impressed that its Executive Summary starts with 34 pages that commemmorates the victims. More info: masscasualtycommission.ca/final-report/

@sbrucecanada @amandacomms Yes, I am very impressed. Godt jobbet, Amanda!

@amandacomms @brataas Look at you speaking Norweigan!

Takk til @brataas for denne støtten #krise #krisekommunikasjon

I really enjoyed presenting on crisis communication after a terror attack at a seminar in The Hague last week. It was organized by friend and colleague @WouterJong at @fggaleiden + @NCTV_NL . Topics included social media, victim support and AI.

Great article by my colleague and friend Judy Pal @10_8_Comms about changes at Twitter and the importance of social media listening: bit.ly/3ErWMQi

@idaaa @NotionHQ @MiroHQ I have very good experience with using Evernote

Planning for disaster: I'm working on a book, and taking notes in @NotionHQ and @MiroHQ. It's very unlikely, but not impossible, that I could lose months of work if something goes wrong with my documents or these services. What's a sensible way to back it up?

An interesting report about the Champions League Final in Paris, with a focus on crowd safety, venue management, personal security and duty of care: ow.ly/WZGw50LbuRA
