Emergency response is the set of actions taken during and immediately following a disaster.

I lean towards dropping the word "teams", too.

Crisis response is a broader topic. I would probably suggest creating additional tag for Crises response (most of our recent sequence would fit there)

I think I favour dropping the word "teams" to make this broader.

We could also consider replacing this name with "crisis response", but I don't have a view on which is better.

It was only recently that I published a post on here on the recent activation of ALLFED's response team and the EA movement's resilience.  I am gratified to now read  Case for emergency response teams. I reckon we will be seeing more on this and "emergency response teams" would be a useful tag to get going.
