I gave this presentation to broadcasters from 17 countries that participated in a workshop on Emergency and Disaster Management in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The workshop, held on October 29 and 30, was organized by the CBA and the Caribbean Broadcasting Union (CBU) to introduce current expertise and share best practices for use before, during and after emergencies for Caribbean broadcasters.

Editor's Notes
- Shortly after the Haiti earthquake, a devastating snow storm paralyzed Washington DC. So the Washington Post launched a crisis map. But the Washington Post didn’t only crowdsourced problems, they also crowdsourced solutions. In effect, they created a self-help map. A self-recovery map.
- A few months after Syria Tracker was launched, an earthquake struck the city of Van in Turkey. AL Jazeera activated the SBTF to create this live crowdsourced social media map of impact and needs. Because this was in effect a news site, Al Jazeera posted a disclaimer in the green message area just above the map notes that Al Jazeera cannot guarantee the accuracy of all the information provided on the map, which means that users/viewers of the information should make their own assessment regarding the validity of the reports and use the contact numbers and links provided to investigate the information themselves.So one way around the challenge of verification is to shift the burden to viewers/consumers of information themselves, rather than the producers.
