On May 10th 2009, more than 20 open source software and disaster management researchers and experts, met in Gothenburg, Sweden, to discuss potential disaster management strategies and applications; and to elaborate potential synergies between the Sahana Free and Open Source Disaster Management System and Integrated Risk Management for Africa project (IRMA).



The introduction of Sahana functionalities and lessons learnt from the various deployments as well as the presentation of IRMA’s Mozambique floods application scenario steered an intensive discussion among the participants, notably on the subjects of community building and deployment, of inventories and white boards, of GIS functionalitie, etc.
