PRIO researcher Kristin Bergtora Sandvik has written one of the chapters of this year's World Disasters Report: The risks of technological innovation. The entire report is dedicated to technology and the future of humanitarian intervention.

Sandvik's chapter discusses the risks potentially associated with techonoligical innovation, and the aim is to offer practitioners and policymakers a set of conceptual categories that will support critical reflection on both the opportunities and the costs of using technology.
