Public Launch: Beyond Compliance Consortium's research on Building Evidence on Promoting Restraint by Armed Actors

Event details

The Beyond Compliance Consortium is a co-productive research partnership between three universities and six humanitarian and human rights organisations. Funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, the Consortium develops the three-year theoretical, empirical, and operational research programme “Building Evidence on Promoting Restraint by Armed Actors.” The research centres on local communities’ everyday lived experiences of armed conflict and aims to contribute to the effective prevention and reduction of humanitarian need and civilian harm, and the facilitation of a broader protective environment in war.

We invite you to a presentation of the Beyond Compliance Consortium's research programme, followed by a fireside chat with Consortium members. The interactive discussion will reflect on strategies employed to address need and harm in war. Informed by our partner organisations' work in and on Afghanistan, Myanmar, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq, Israel/Palestine, Mali, South Sudan, Somalia, Syria, Ukraine, and Yemen. The discussion will be followed by a drinks reception.

Online attendees will receive a Zoom link prior to the event.
