EVERY CASUALTY.ORG:

NEW ORG WEBSITE LAUNCHED ON CASUALTY RECORDING

At a time when the issue of civilian casualties in Libya has been dominating the international agenda, our Recording Casualties of Armed Conflict programme has launched Every Casualty.org, a website aiming to raise the profile of casualty recording worldwide and the organisations that undertake it. The site is a one-stop shop for information on casualties of conflict worldwide. It engages 22 of the organisations that record them in the International Practitioner Network convened by ORG.

The site has two sections: The public section provides access to information on the 22 members, including members’ publications and a newsfeed, and exclusive items related to casualty recording. A private section contains a forum where members of the Network can engage with one another on issues they face in the field. For more information, please contact Jacob Beswick at
