The Sentinel Project for Genocide Prevention needs your help! We are an NGO developing an open source early warning system for Genocide. Currently, we are developing a threatwiki to catalogue and track flashpoints in various situations of concern where genocide is a likely threat for target groups.
One of our Research Analysts is undertaking a research project looking into the effects of globalization on genocide response. A genocide simulation is being planned to take place in the city of Toronto and we need a two teams (at total of 10-14 members) to help us examine self-organized strategies and technology use from the perspective of genocide rescuers or collaborators.
Group Affiliations will be assigned randomly. If interested please send an e-mail to the address below telling us a bit about yourselves and why you’re interested. All participants will be interviewed via questionnaire, regarding their opinions and experience in the simulation. The simulation should take no longer than a day, and will be moderated in real-time via twitter, msn messenger, and mobile texting.
