Forensic Architecture

Forensic Architecture is a research agency based at Goldsmiths, University of London, that investigates human rights violations using architectural techniques, open-source investigation, and advanced media. They analyze buildings, landscapes, and digital environments to reconstruct events and present evidence in legal and political forums. They are newsworthy due to their recent investigations into alleged war crimes and human rights abuses in conflict zones. A recent report by Forensic Architecture, in collaboration with Earshot, alleges that Israeli forces fired over 900 bullets to kill Gaza medics in 2025. Their work is also relevant to a legal complaint filed in Paris concerning an Israeli strike in Lebanon. These investigations contribute to ongoing debates about accountability and international law, highlighting the organization's role in documenting and analyzing complex events where human rights are potentially violated.
