We are delighted to announce that the world’s leading j
oint personnel recovery event will be returning in 2013 following its tremendous success in 2012
Personnel recovery has never been more of a burning issue with recent experiences in Afghanistan and the Horn of Africa demonstrating the importance of:
- Effectively planning for personnel recovery incidents
- Educating those in danger of becoming isolated
- Developing the capability to rescue isolated persons, military and non-military alike, from contested areas
With these areas in mind Joint Personnel Recovery 2013 will showcase the whole of government approach to PR with new and added perspectives on:
- How both dedicated CSAR units and special operations forces will conduct personnel recovery operations in hostile environments ‘post Afghanistan’
- How are government personnel recovery managers planning for contingency operations in countries where the use of force is not an option
- How do NGOs mitigate the risks of an isolating incidents staking place and how does their crisis management response differ from governments’
- What are the materiel solutions in the market that can assist isolated persons and what are governments’ and militaries’ latest requirements’
- How would PR forces counter A2/AD strategies to effect successful missions in areas such as the Gulf and Asia Pacific
