Since its establishment in 2004, the ISCRAM association has aimed to bring together people from various culture, knowledge and background to design and develop information systems that improve our capacity to avoid, prepare for, respond to and recover from crises, disasters and catastrophes. The ISCRAM world conference is one of the main events for ISCRAMers to exchange and share to try to reach this goal. Organized every year since 2004 (alternating between America and Europe), this conference series provide several original points:

• A vibrant mix of (i) scientists from around the world, (ii) responders from different crisis and disaster management organizations, (iii) practitioners from industry developing crisis management solutions and services, and (iii) institution members concerned by crisis management.
• An interdisciplinary set-up that covers a wide range of scientific domains and facilitates cross-disciplinary discussion and thinking “out of the box” — from social sciences to computer sciences and IT, including management sciences, geography, psychology, anthropology, etc.
• An open vision of “Crisis Response and Management” including humanitarian disasters, homeland security, industrial and human-made crisis situations, accidents of all kinds, etc.
• The conference proceedings will have ISBN and ISSN and will be indexed in Scopus, DBLP, Google Scholar and Compendex. Proceedings will be available online in the ISCRAM Digital Library.
