Draft tool to assess Ukraine war damage available

A draft version of an Excel tool is now available to provide organisations closer to the scene with a way of describing the damage in Ukrainian urban areas resulting from the Russian invasion.

We have been working with about a dozen iiSBE and other colleagues in several central European countries with an interest in sustainable reconstruction of Ukraine. Main participants in the tool development include Prof. Kajetan Sadowski and Dr. Woytek Kujawski (Poland), Dr. Antonin Lupisek and Nika Trubina (Czechia), with overall management provided by Nils Larsson (Canada).
