About
Karen Bradley

Karen Bradley's PhD project developed a comprehensive and inclusive major emergency management framework based on the Incident Command System, that can be applied across a number of jurisdictions and agencies for the response phase of an incident. This includes the level of inter-agency clarity across the concepts of command, control and coordination. This analysis was then used to examine the processes for event handover, including identifying any boundaries of agency triggers for changeover and help identify the strengths and weaknesses of current incident command systems.

Karen’s research developed an integrated framework for the response phase of modern-day disasters, including frontline emergency response agencies, that utilise the Incident Command System and other non-traditional agencies that perform disaster management response functions.

Karen finished her PhD in 2023. She is now the Manager of IM Capability and Readiness at Queensland Fire and Emergency Services.
