Thank you @CeylonToday for publishing this story about the IBRN’s mission and our recent workshop in Sri Lanka. We can’t wait to share the highlights from this event and look forward to progressing new partnerships with Sri Lanka.

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

Really interesting event and so proud to have presented our @WUNetwork/@TheIBRN project with my collaborators Dain from @SheffieldBlast & Sherlyn from @UCT_Research @UniSotonIntl
A recent event hosted by @UCT_news for @WUNetwork members highlighted shared research projects that have optimised multilateral partnerships and collaborations with institutions across Africa and the globe. Learn more: bit.ly/4bNV9L2. #UCTCollaboration

There’s still time to register to attend our 5th in-person IBRN workshop ‘Strengthening Resilience to Urban Explosive Violence’ which will be held in Colombo, Sri Lanka from 2-3 July!

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.
Great interview with @aoav board member Jack Denny (@JackWDenny): academic expertise informing very real life issues
Implementing the Political Declaration on explosive weapons in populated areas: why engineering-perspectives on blast effects matter

Also, great to share some past and present blast engineering studies facilitated through the @TheIBRN and @WUNetwork with my excellent collaborators @genevieve_langd @DrSamarHajj @Jim_batch @Dr_RichardCurry @Dr_SamRigby and our partners at BISRU @UCT_Research & @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: buff.ly/3Tz3TN6
@TheIBRN
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
🧵 (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 ⬇️

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

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.
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
Reminder: Understanding and Mitigating the Impact of Explosions Outside Conventional Warfare

Day 1 at our WUN RDF/@TheIBRN workshop here at the University of Cape Town bringing together blast engineers from @SheffieldBlast @UCT_Research & @UoSEngineering! Interesting presentations and we even did some reduced-scale blast tests! 💥 🇿🇦 @WUNetwork
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

How can the global engineering community take action in #DisasterRiskReduction?
As David Smith emphasised at a recent @UN event, engineers are well placed to provide innovative solutions, but cross-collaboration is vital to accelerating #DRR.
