2 | Why Splatsin Joined the Disasterfield Network (with Shawn Tronson)

Cole and Newt sit down with Shawn Tronson, Emergency Management Coordinator for Splatsin in Enderby, BC—Canada’s first Indigenous community to join the Disasterfield Network. Shawn shares on-the-ground experiences, what’s working in community preparedness, and the gaps that technology and training must close. The conversation covers trust, sovereignty, and data-sharing, and why Splatsin chose to connect its people, partners, and outside agencies through a common operating picture.
