Public Money & Management invites submissions for a Special Issue on “From Emergency Response to Inclusive Resilient Governance in an Era of Crises.” The special issue explores how public organizations, emergency services, and governance systems are adapting to increasingly complex and interconnected crises, including natural disasters, pandemics, security threats, and climate emergencies.

The issue seeks to move beyond traditional emergency response models and examine broader frameworks of inclusive and resilient governance. It highlights the importance of collaborative leadership, cross-sector coordination, organizational learning, community engagement, and institutional legitimacy in managing crises effectively.

The Special Issue also emphasizes workforce resilience, job crafting, diversity, and social inclusion, recognizing that disaster preparedness, response, and recovery are deeply shaped by social inequalities, identity relations, institutional cultures, and community capabilities.

• Emergency service adaptation to complex and interconnected crises
• Governance capacities for managing compound and cascading risks
