    Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal Volume 8 | 2014 Humanitarian Technologies and Issue 3 | Article 6 Genocide Prevention A New Forensics: Developing Standard Remote Sensing Methodologies to Detect and Document Mass Atrocities Nathaniel A. Raymond Harvard University, [email protected] Brittany L. Card Harvard University, [email protected] Isaac L. Baker Harvard University, [email protected] Abstract. Aim: The aim of this article is to highlight potential methods applicable to a standard forensic approach for the analysis of high-resolution satellite imagery that may contain evidence of alleged mass atrocities. Methods: The primary method employed is the retrospective analysis of a case study involving the use of high-resolution satellite imagery analysis to document alleged mass atrocities. The case study utilized herein is the Satellite Sentinel Project’s reporting on the May 2011 sacking of Abyei Town by Government of Sudan-aligned armed actors. In the brief case study, categories of objects, patterns of activities, and types of alleged mass atrocity events are applied the Abyei Town incident.

  • A FRAMEWORK for the ETHICAL USE of ADVANCED DATA SCIENCE METHODS in the HUMANITARIAN SECTOR Executive Summary
    A FRAMEWORK FOR THE ETHICAL USE OF ADVANCED DATA SCIENCE METHODS IN THE HUMANITARIAN SECTOR Executive Summary What is this document? This is a framework for applying data science methods for humanitarian outcomes. It aims to provide a set of ethical and practical guidelines for humanitarian data collectors, users, and stakeholders to consider when applying data science for humanitarian work. This work is at the juncture of data science (in particular AI), ethics, responsible data management,1 humanitarian innovation, and humanitarian principles and standards. Who is this document for? This framework provides a practical guide for a broad range of humanitarian data stakeholders ranging from users, collectors and enumerators on the ground to data scientists, project focal points, programme managers and donors. It can also assist private and civil sector actors that work in or are interested in working in humanitarian work, and can be a useful resource for academics, students and policy staff. How was this document made? This framework is the first output of the Humanitarian Data Science and Ethics Group (DSEG) - a multi- stakeholder group established in 2018. It is an outcome of a consultative process based on the discussions during DSEG meetings and resulting identified priorities. This document draws perspectives from programme staff from various areas of humanitarian work, such as camp coordination and camp management (CCCM); Cash; Shelter; Protection; Gender Based Violence (GBV) prevention; and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH). It refers extensively to existing academic and humanitarian documents and frameworks, combines research and interviews with various humanitarian field staff officers, and reflects inputs from a thorough review process involving diverse data stakeholders and experts.

  • Social Media Evidence of Alleged Gross Human Rights Abuses: Improving Preservation and Access Through Policy Reform
    Mass Atrocities in the Digital Era Initiative (MADE) Working Paper No. 1 March 2021 Social Media Evidence of Alleged Gross Human Rights Abuses: Improving Preservation and Access Through Policy Reform Olivia Mooney, Kate Pundyk, Nathaniel Raymond and David Simon Potentially crucial digital evidence of gross human rights violations that occur outside the United States is being lost. The absence of a specific legal mandate and protocol by which this evidence could be routinely preserved and accessed is a problem that the United States Congress will need to help solve. This paper builds on the Yale Genocide Studies Program’s Mass Atrocities in the Digital Era (MADE) initiative’s three-month consultation process with a diverse range of civil society stakeholders working to improve preservation of digital evidence. It considers how U.S. potential liability has limited sharing social media data with stakeholders in the human rights community and presents three potential legal processes to address this issue. This work promotes justice and accountability for alleged gross human rights abuses.

Raymond†, Gabrielle Gould‡ and Isaac Baker†† At the evolving frontier of modern humanitarianism, non-governmental organizations are using satellite technology to monitor mass atrocities. As a documentation tool, satellites have the potential to collect important real-time evidence for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. However, the field remains experimental and ill-defined, while useful court evidence cannot be produced without a standard methodology and code of ethics. Members of the groundbreaking Satellite Sentinel Project review the historical development of satel- lite documentation and some of its landmark projects, and propose necessary measures to advance the field forward.
