Mics and Sirens

Season 2, Global voices. Local impact.

Episode Notes

Mics and Sirens is the official podcast of the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) in Western Australia. 

Season 2 of Mics and Sirens was recorded live at the 2025 Australasian Fire and Emergency Services Authority Council Conference in Perth, WA. We sat down with international and national experts to unpack disasters that shook the world and gain insights into emergency management innovations. 

They share their experience, bringing fresh thinking to the table that helps to shape the future of emergency management. From preparing for disasters, reflecting on catastrophic events, to the eyes in the sky helping protect those on the frontline, through to the power of people fighting the (fire) fight every day – these global voices remind us that progress is built on knowledge and collaboration and can be used to make an impact anywhere in the world.
