ARMSMA studies how harm actually happens: explosive remnants of war, fire, technical failure, hybrid crises. What we learn becomes research, training and software that others can put to use.
To analyse the threats to people, communities and the systems they depend on — and to make the answers usable. We research how harm happens, teach what to do about it, and build the tools that put that knowledge in reach. Preparedness is a skill, and a skill can be taught.
A general personal-safety training programme for civilians.
An application that finds evacuation routes for a specific, fully realistic building — its algorithms run dozens of routes and adapt to random incidents and fires in real time.
We are building analytical and information products to support humanitarian operations — briefings, datasets, maps and assessments prepared for the people working in the field. If your organisation needs something of this kind, write to us: much of what we build starts as somebody's concrete request.
