    Revolutionizing Disaster Response:

    In the Emergency Management Network Leaders and Innovators interview series, Todd DeVoe speaks with Arthur Simental, a certified emergency manager and game creator, about an innovative training board game for emergency managers. The guest shares their journey into emergency management, which began after high school with an introduction to an exercise in Colorado Springs. Inspired by disaster movies and exercises, they developed a passion for emergency management and training. The conversation covers creating a unique board game that fills a gap in emergency management training by being more immersive and engaging than traditional tabletop exercises. The game focuses on ESF (Emergency Support Function) roles, simulating real-life scenarios like wildfires, resource allocation, and political challenges. It introduces an element of "chaos" through cards, keeping the game dynamic and unpredictable, reflecting the nature of real emergencies. Additionally, the game is designed to be cost-effective, making it accessible to smaller emergency management programs. The game also emphasizes team-based wins, as success in emergencies relies on collaboration. The guest highlights how they sought to create a tool that trains emergency managers and educates the public on emergency management processes. They discuss the importance of balancing fun, replayability, and authenticity while advancing emergency management training methods through both traditional and potentially digital platforms in the future.

    The Future of Wildfire Management:

    "Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire" is a timely and thought-provoking documentary that challenges the conventional narratives around wildfires and their management. As emergency management professionals, we are often at the forefront of responding to these increasingly frequent and intense natural disasters. This film provides us with a critical opportunity to rethink our approaches, emphasizing the need for a paradigm shift in how we understand and manage wildfires. The documentary explores the complex relationship between fire, the environment, and human communities, pushing the boundaries of what is traditionally considered effective wildfire management. It highlights the importance of returning to indigenous knowledge and practices, which have long recognized fire as a natural and necessary part of the ecosystem. By integrating these practices with modern science and technology, the film advocates for a more holistic and sustainable approach to wildfire management. One of the key takeaways from "Elemental" is the idea that we need to move away from the notion of fire suppression as the sole strategy for wildfire management. Instead, the film urges us to focus on creating fire-resilient communities through proactive measures such as controlled burns, better land-use planning, and community engagement. This shift in focus aligns with the broader goals of emergency management: to mitigate risk, enhance resilience, and ensure that communities are better prepared to face disasters. For emergency managers, "Elemental" serves as a powerful reminder that our strategies must evolve to meet the challenges of a changing climate. The increasing frequency and severity of wildfires are not just environmental issues; they are public safety concerns that require a coordinated and informed response. By adopting the principles presented in this documentary, we can work towards a future where wildfires are not seen as catastrophic events but as natural phenomena that we can live with and manage effectively. In conclusion, "Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire" is more than just a documentary; it is a call to action for all of us in the emergency management field. It challenges us to rethink our approaches, embrace new strategies, and work collaboratively with communities to build a more fire-resilient future. As we continue to face the growing threat of wildfires, this film offers valuable insights and practical solutions that can help guide our efforts in creating safer, more resilient communities.
