Track 10: Volunteers in Crisis Management/Emergency Response (Chairs: Sofie Pilemalm, Caroline Rizza, Niki Matinrad, Robin Batard, Ophélie Morand, Deborah Bunker, and Kayvan Yousefi Mojir)The importance of volunteerism in crisis management and emergency response has been known for decades and is once again highlighted by current events e.g., COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, floods, storms and wildfires due to climate change. While crises occur, emergency responders also need to attend to smaller frequent emergencies, for example house fires, medical emergencies, accidents and traffic incidents. In these circumstances, volunteers can and do make a difference in first response. On one hand, there is a need to train and integrate volunteers within disaster management preparation, response and recovery as well as within emergency management operations. On the other hand, both full-time and volunteer disaster and emergency and crisis responders need to adapt their practices in order to realize the benefits of both available information and communications technologies in support of these practices and the spontaneous initiatives they may support. The aim of this track is to showcase current research on how the involvement of volunteers can support crisis and emergency management using various ICT, and what are the needs, challenges and solutions. The track is broad, and we invite papers that provide rich descriptions or evaluations on integration of volunteers and on design, development and use of related technology support
