Main objective

The objective of this research program is to acquire more knowledge about the impact terror has on those affected, on those that assisted, and on the population as a whole, as well as examining what role society’s institutions had.

The results of this research will provide us with a better understanding of the consequences of terror, and insight as to how these consequences can be prevented or limited. This program will also contribute to expanding the knowledge of beneficial measures which can provide the foundation for prospective guidelines on the management of future disasters.
