📚 FSD visited @ipz.bsky.social at the University of Zurich last week, where Matt Wilson and Michael Pfister spoke to Political Science #students about the lasting impact of landmines, the role of #neutrality, and how #HumanitarianDemining supports post-conflict recovery.
The following day, Hansjörg gave a #presentation to a masterclass on science, technology, and vulnerability.
It’s always a pleasure to share insights on #HumanitarianDemining and the role of #technology in making communities safer.

An inspiring photo #exhibition has opened at the Taras Shevchenko National Museum in Kyiv, #Ukraine, highlighting 29 stories of Ukrainian #women in #HumanitarianDemining — including five of our FSD colleagues.
