The environment is often considered the silent victim of conflicts, and it's our responsibility to ensure it is not overlooked. We achieve this by monitoring and gathering data on the environmental impact of armed conflicts and raising public awareness about its consequences.
A typical day at the office involves staying updated on the latest developments in Sudan and other conflict areas, mainly focusing on any environmentally relevant incidents to share with the team. By reviewing both old and new media sources.
We maintain a database of incidents from the conflicts in Ukraine and Sudan, and our task is to verify these incidents using open source information and satellite imagery. Once verified, we produce a brief environmental assessment of the incident, compiling as much information as possible from remote sources. This data is used to create reports for relevant organisations and blogs, which are available on our website.
