The IMRF’s Global Maritime SAR Forum (GMSF) is the world’s leading platform bringing the global SAR community together to exchange ideas, explore innovation, and learn from real-world experience - all with one shared goal: improving maritime search and rescue.

Each month, IMRF members can join a live virtual session featuring expert presentations, new technologies, practical insights, and open discussions where you can connect, question, and collaborate with SAR professionals from around the world. Can’t make a session? All presentations are available afterwards in this members-only area of our website.

We’re honoured to welcome Dr Paul Luckin, #Medical Advisor to Police Search and Rescue & SAR Training #Australia, to present at our next Global Maritime SAR Forum. 

In his session, Dr Luckin will explore the crucial physiological and clinical elements that impact a person’s ability to survive in aquatic environments, in cold and warm waters - from cold water shock and hypothermia to exhaustion and delayed rescue.

The date is TBC and the joining link will be in the Members' Knowledge Hub soon.
