Emergency management approach

UNSW is committed to an emergency management framework that helps us respond to the following priorities in the event of an emergency:

• save lives
• protect property and prevent harm to the environment
• restore essential University infrastructure
• quickly restore academic and administrative functions.

Our emergency management arrangements must be flexible enough to adapt to any type of emergency. They must also allow for sound and timely decision-making in moments of crisis.

Our approach to planning and implementing emergency management is based on four principles:

1.    Preparedness
2.    Prevention
3.    Response
4.    Recovery
