Thank you to our 22 sponsors and exhibitors, more than 60 presenters, and close to 500 attendees for making EMC 2022 into one of the most successful EMC’s in a 22 year history!

2022 conference theme
It will be our 22nd EMC conference with the theme:
As the world changes, so must we.
The emergency management sector must not be complacent. Adhering to established, evidence-based practices is not good enough. We walk the tightrope between ever changing government and community attitudes and expectations. As a sector we must be ready and open to change to meet these expectations. EMC 2022 presentations will reflect this theme throughout the program.
About EMC
The Emergency Management Conference (EMC) has been a landmark event for the past 22 years in Melbourne as the annual gathering for management and operations staff and volunteers from all Victorian emergency services. It is also attended by Emergency Management personnel from state and local government, NGOs and other recovery agencies.
Bringing together emergency management professionals and subject matter experts over two days, EMC offers insight, reflection, understanding and motivation across a wide range of topics and emergency management incidents.
Over 500 delegates attended in 2019, making EMC Melbourne one of the biggest events of its type. Now in it’s 22nd year EMC is looking to be the emergency management event of the year.
