1st International Disaster MedicalRally: Together We Will Survive
23 – 25 June 2015
Chiang Rai, Thailand
       
Rationale
Once devastating disasters, regardless of whether natural or man-made, occur in its own territory, each country has a first and foremost responsibility to: save victims, reduce suffering, and minimize adverse consequences.

Therefore, building and strengthening the capacity and resilience of disaster/emergency medicine to disasters and other emergency incidents are crucial in making a difference between life and death for many people during all kind of incidents.
In addition to the domestic response capability, there are needs to be a collective effort to tackle and manage these various emergencies. This means building and enhancing an effective and efficient disaster/emergency medicine preparedness and response systems through establishment of international and regional networks.
