Safer: A Playbook—Turning Fear Into Action and Crisis Into Community

Aspen Global Innovators Group will host a conversation with Dr. Raj Panjabi about his new book, SAFER: A Playbook—Turning Fear Into Action and Crisis Into Community, at the Aspen Institute’s Washington, DC, office on Thursday, November 12, from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.

Drawing on his experiences in hospital emergency rooms, communities responding to epidemics, and the White House Situation Room, Dr. Panjabi explores how we can navigate uncertainty, turn fear into action, and strengthen the relationships that help individuals and communities endure moments of crisis.

The conversation will offer timely insights into the role of trust, connection, and collective action in building a safer and more resilient future.
