To serve the “rapidly expanding constituency of international members joining the DroneResponders movement,” the DroneResponders Public Safety Alliance has created the DroneResponders International Advisory Council (DIAC).

According to DroneResponders Director Charles Werner, the DIAC’s primary mission is to help formalize the plan for how DroneResponders can best serve members that represent a wide range of regions, languages, and cultural traits, with an ultimate goal of “building bridges facilitating information sharing and interoperability across borders.”

Right now, the DIAC is having conversations with several international members that have expressed interest in serving in a leadership capacity for the organization.

“There are some incredibly talented leaders who have expressed interest in helping us expand DroneResponders internationally,” Werner says.

“They each come with slightly different nuisances for achieving the same objective; helping to promote emergency services use of drones for good.”
