The Next Emergency Institute will be an institute for research for disaster preparedness, mitigation, and relief for emergencies due to environmental disasters. Scholars and researchers will study and apply new ways to tackle disasters. The Institute will bring together people in various disciplines: scientists, lawyers, political theorists, political scientists, government leaders, and, most importantly, the people on the front lines such as firefighters, veterinarians, doctors, nurses, and police. The Institute will not only be for research but will also adapt to accommodate emergencies, providing shelter and resources for the surrounding neighborhoods.
