The Atrocity Prevention Lab is a project to strengthen innovation, collaboration, and impact of atrocity and conflict prevention work through the integration of spatial methods and technologies. Launched in 2023, this project was established by the Signal Program on Human Security and Technology at the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative.

Courses

The Atrocity Prevention Lab has developed a sequential learning opportunity to improve spatial literacy and capacity, at no cost to the participant. The asynchronous course, released in February 2024, is available on-demand and provides foundational knowledge about spatial methods to EWEA practitioners. The synchronous workshop series, hosted for the first time in September 2024, is a companion to the asynchronous course. This live, virtual workshop equips participants with a geospatial methodological workflow and challenges them to apply this workflow to topics relevant to their own contexts.
