The Boston Marathon bombings a decade later: An inside look at lessons learned

Presented jointly with the National Preparedness Leadership Initiative at Harvard University
On April 15, 2013, two explosions rocked the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Within minutes, authorities from multiple jurisdictions launched an extraordinary collaborative effort to treat victims, clear crowds, track down the bombers, and calm a rattled city. Researchers would later call that approach “swarm leadership.” A decade later, we bring together leaders from the front lines and emergency preparedness experts to tell the inside story of the response. Our panelists will share key lessons learned and explore how the principles and practices implemented in Boston can help us prepare for future crises.
