Symposium on Documenting Mortality in Conflicts
The Centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters, in collaboration with the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative, is organizing an inter-disciplinary symposium on the different techniques and applications for mortality estimation during armed conflicts.
The aim is to strengthen the scientific basis by drawing on recent progress in disciplines such as field epidemiology, demography, forensics and statistical analyses to better build bridges between these disciplines and develop complementary approaches towards the estimation of mortality in conflicts.
The international symposium will be held in at the Fondation Universitaire in Brussels on the 6th and 7th of November 2008.
