Search and Rescue for Missing Persons ft. Dr Craig Collie

Dr Craig Collie is a Search and Rescue Volunteer and academic in the field of Missing Persons. It’s not all helicopters and sniffer dogs though. Craig takes Karen through the decisions police forces have to make when searching for a missing person and how search and rescue teams can be a vital support in this.

He also discusses how different bodies collaborate with police, often across borders, to assist in search missions and how analysts have worked out some metrics for predicting the behaviour of missing persons with different mental health conditions.

Craig also discusses the role that families can and should play in the search and rescue process as well as the kinds of protocols that nations put in place for large scale missing persons events, such as natural disasters.

We want you to share knowledge and empower conversations to help tackle the missing persons crisis. Find out more about all of our guests and the Missing Persons Uncovered project and find links to support on the website missingpersonsuncovered.com
