The Yale School of Public Health Humanitarian Research Lab (HRL) is dedicated to protecting the health and security of populations affected by crises throughout the world. HRL generates evidence for operational response and accountability in humanitarian crises. HRL analyzes and preserves open source and remote sensing data, including satellite imagery and information shared via social media, consistent with international legal standards for use in ongoing and future accountability mechanisms. This includes maintaining rigorous chain-of-custody procedures for preservation and accountability mechanisms. Real-time analyses of these data provide support to partners delivering healthcare and responding to population needs in conflict settings.
