<p> IWA N 26 24 March 2006 Third Draft Agenda ISO International Workshop on Standardization for Emergency Preparedness</p><p>Dates: 24-26 April 2006</p><p>Times: Meeting will start at 9:00 on 24 April 2006 and end no later than 13:00 on 26 April 2006. Please note that follow-on task groups may meet as needed during the afternoon of 26 April. </p><p>Location: Villa La Pietra International Conference Center of New York University Florence, Italy</p><p>Hosts: The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the New York University (NYU) International Center for Enterprise Preparedness (InterCEP)</p><p>Purpose: No International Organization for Standardization (ISO) international standard currently exists for emergency preparedness. Yet, recent large-scale disasters ranging from tsunamis and hurricanes to earthquakes and terrorism underscore the importance of consensus guidance and international coordination in emergency readiness, response, and recovery efforts. The purpose of the meeting will be to reach an International Workshop Agreement (IWA), to be published by ISO, for emergency preparedness and operational continuity.</p><p>Process: Given the urgency of the need and the significant time frame necessary to develop a new standard, the forum will focus on existing consensus-based national standards and guidance in the area of emergency management. Participating organizations have been invited to submit these existing standards for consideration in advance of the workshop. These standards will be provided to all pre-registered participants for review and comment prior to the meeting. </p><p>Deadline: The deadline for submission of standards to the workshop was 15 February 2006. Pre- registration is required by 1 April 2006 to insure that the necessary meeting arrangements can be made.</p><p>Agenda:</p><p>April 24, 2006 (9:00 to 17:00)</p><p>1.
