The 5th @TheIBRN Forum took place earlier this week in Sri Lanka with the aims to gain understanding of Sri Lanka’s health system, emergency response strengths & challenges faced in relation to the 2019 bombings + exploring the rebuilding in Colombo and lessons learnt 🇱🇰 #IBRN

On 21 April 2019, Easter explosions in SriLanka killed at least 253 people. At least 40 foreign nationals and at least 45 children reported to be among the dead. Effort to compile experience by @TheIBRN team led by @JackWDenny @genevieve_langd

Thank you @iainoverton & @AOAV - great to share my views on the role of data-driven and #blastengineering approaches for informing the protection of civilians from blast, the #EWIPA #PoliticalDeclaration and broader advocacy efforts.

[Dr Iain Overton @iainoverton]

Great interview with @aoav board member Jack Denny (@JackWDenny): academic expertise informing very real life issues

[Action on Armed Violence (AOAV) @AOAV]

To implement the #Declaration, we need to understand the blast effects of what we are trying to protect people from.

@AOAV and @TheIBRN's @JackWDenny explored why engineering-perspectives matter when discussing the protection of civilians from #EWIPA.👇

Blast research has long focused on military, not civilian priorities. Dr Rebecca Genny-Brown, @Jim_batch and @JackWDenny from @UniSouthampton have set out to change this - read more: https://t.co/PfjMT9MNye

Excellent event & interesting discussions! Thank you @UNIDIR & @WeaponsMonitor for inviting me and the @TheIBRN to participate in this important workshop concerning data collection on the effects of explosive weapons in populated areas #EWIPA

[United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research @UNIDIR]

🧵 (1/3) UNIDIR & @WeaponsMonitor are convening experts from across humanitarian, development and peace & security fields for a workshop discussing measures & effective practices for strengthening the collection of data on the reverberating effects of the use of #EWIPA ⬇️

[United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research @UNIDIR]

Day 2!

With April’s Oslo Conf. approaching, UNIDIR & @WeaponsMonitor is promoting a discuss. with States, IOs & civil society on how the Political Declaration on EWIPA can be leveraged to strengthen efforts to collect data to prevent & reduce civilian harm from the use of #EWIPA

[Camille Petit @CfPetit]

Today France & @AOAV held a side event on "Mitigating IEDs effects". Many thanks to panelists @iainoverton @TIGizelis @JackWDenny Jenny Dathan for their deep data analysis (huge impact on civilians, esp. women) and subsequent recommendations to policymakers & urban planners.

[Dr Jack Denny @JackWDenny]

Excited to present some of my research at tomorrow’s @UN side event on ‘understanding and mitigating the impact of explosions outside conventional warfare’, organised by @AOAV

Today we had our first online workshop for our @WUNetwork RDF project incl partners from @UoSEngineering @UCT_Research, @sheffielduni, @AOAV @Cambridge_Uni & @AUB_Lebanon. We discussed CFD results using @viperblast42 & plans for our upcoming experiments examining the #BeirutBlast
