Managing Disasters through Public-Private Partnerships by Ami J Abou-Bakr

Managing Disasters through Public-Private Partnerships by Ami J Abou-Bakr

Assesses whether public-private partnerships for the purposes of disaster resilience are viable at the federal level, identifies why attempts to develop these partnerships have largely fallen short, and suggests how the framework supporting this type of collaboration could be enhanced to ensure more robust collaborations in the future.

Ami J. Abou-bakr is a lecturer in politics in the Department of Political Economy at King's College London. She holds a BS from the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, an MA from the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London, and a PhD in public policy from King's College London. As a "practitioner academic" who spent several years working in the US financial sector before returning to academia, her research is directed toward informing policy decisions and influencing public and private sector decision makers.
