Formalising data collection and assessment methodologies is an important step as we work towards ensuring more detailed and comprehensive documentation of environmental harm globally. This webinar will introduce CEOBS’ Wartime IncidentS to ENvironment (WISEN) methodology, explore how we have used it for research on Ukraine, Sudan and Iran, discuss how data can be used for different purposes, and consider future opportunities to improve documentation.
