Re: [emergency] Fwd: Call to Action on Emergency Alerting (WSIS Session 238)

Thanks Chet,

    
We actually already
        have the announcement featured on our TC Webpage in boldface,
        too. You might want to check our next announcements that will
        include today's kickoff meeting of the EU STRATEGY Project. I
        have asked Elysa what she thinks about adding some information
        on this. 

      

    
However, all in all, it
        was a good meeting, albeit a little early for me, and gave me a
        baptism by fire of Microsoft Teams, !@#*!! I have to just get
        used to it since it seems like we're married to it. It took
        uninstalling and reinstalling to get the microphone to work
        correctly. However, after that it was smooth sailing.

Members of the Emergency Management TC,Â
        

        

        
I am sharing this alert from Dr. Carol Cosgrove-Sacks about
          the global call to action on emergency alerting using CAP and
          the webinar on it being held as part of the WSIS Forum 2022. I
          didn't know that this was underway so I thought I would share
          it to be sure you all see it.Â

        

        

        
Best,Â
