The aim of the conference was to bring together policy-makers, practitioners and researchers in emergency preparedness to consider some of the problems associated with large-scale evacuations. The objectives were: to identify good practice in the management of evacuation and shelter; to examine case studies and research from the UK and abroad; to offer recommendations to relevant organisations and personnel on how existing guidance might be enhanced and where further research or study might be useful
