THE IAEM BULLETIN
The IAEM Bulletin is published monthly by the International Association of Emergency Managers to keep members abreast of association news, government actions affecting emergency management, and research and information sources. The publication is also intended to serve as a way for emergency management colleagues to exchange information on programs and ideas. The print edition is 16-24 pages, plus there is an extended online edition of up to 40 pages.
Readership
The Bulletin is distributed to 4,500+ emergency management officials each month, representing all levels of government, industrial, commercial, educational, military, private, non-profit and volunteer organizations in the U.S. and around the world. The newsletter is also sent to allied organizations and legislative representatives with a role in emergency management issues.
Special Focus Issues
At least four times a year, the IAEM Bulletin includes a Special Focus section on a selected topic of interest to emergency managers.
Deadline for article submissions: Jan. 10, 2009
Articles are solicited on
emergency management communications
preparedness, response, and interoperability across agencies and regions.
Deadline for article submissions: Apr. 10, 2009
This issue will focus on innovation and new ideas that are
put into practice. We especially
want to hear from practitioners
who have put research into
practice, not just researchers who
have great ideas. Also, how have
you taken a lesson learned from
some event and applied it to a different situation, circumstance, event or organization?
Deadline for article submissions: June 10, 2009
An article could focus
on a specific organization, or it
could share how a community
utilizes assistance from faith-based
organizations, documenting lessons learned. In the United States, faith-based organizations have a special
function because of governmental
as well as individual agency rules.
We would like to learn how faith-based organizations respond all around the world; there may be
similarities or differences.
Deadline for article submissions: Sept. 10, 2009
The special focus topic will
match the theme for the IAEM
2009 Annual Conference, "Emergency Management: United We Stand."
The “EM Practitioner Articles” collection is posted online in the Members Only area to collect and preserve information of value to IAEM members – professionals who are in the field of emergency management, are interested in protecting lives and property through an all-hazards approach, are concerned with national security, and have an emergency management/civil defense assignment in government, the military, industry, or a non-governmental organization.
This collection of articles, available to IAEM members, was developed and is maintained by the IAEM Editorial Committee. Volunteers from the Editorial Committee make up the EM Practitioner Article Review Team. Please Note: Article submissions are not subjected to editing or a comprehensive review, so posting of an article does not qualify as a “Publication” for purposes of the CEM® application package. download complete guidelines
