    In this webinar, we will venture beyond the tools and techniques in emergency preparedness and explore the world of human behavior in crisis. We will examine how larger emergencies can affect us psychologically and how this might hinder or facilitate an effective emergency response and salvage of collections.
    We will explore the concept of uncertainty as a cognitive state that triggers different emotional experiences due to the lack of information, knowledge, or predictability in a crisis.
    We will ask questions such as how cognitive, emotional, and behavioral stress can hinder emergency responses. We will examine some evidence-based strategies, such as resilience-building exercises and cognitive restructuring, offering practical tools to equip emergency response teams in managing stress effectively during crisis.
