75 YEARS FROM HARM TO HOME

Agree on a list of priority technologies to introduce, adapt or develop for crisis settings Draft a work plan for accomplishing the selected activities, including tasks, timeline, responsible persons

Our task now is to chart the way forward for the “Technologies Working Group (TWG)”

What should be the remit / terms of reference for the working group? How should it operate? Should there be a chair / co-chair?

What are the priority technologies to take forward? What underutilized, existing technologies should be rolled out? What needs to happen to do this (e.g. awareness-raising, training, etc.) What existing technologies should be adapted to work better in crisis settings? What needs to happen to do this (e.g. consultations, pilot testing, etc.) What new technologies should be developed? What needs to happen to do this (e.g. consultations, pilot testing, etc.)

How will field input be incorporated into TWG activities? How will the TWG interface with product developers / manufacturers?

Assuming the TWG reports at the annual IAWG meeting, is there a need for future technology-focused meetings / consultations? How often – annual / bi- annual? For the various actions, what costs may be required? Are there funding ideas?
