Understanding Accident Investigations as Rituals for Moving on from Disaster

In this podcast, Johan Bergström, Head of Department at the School of Aviation at Lund University, raises and addresses some fundamental questions about accident investigations:

1) What is the purpose of an accident investigation? 

2) Why do we really do an accident investigation? What are the needs and who are the audiences? 

3) How well do investigations fulfil the needs of those audiences? 

4) What novel strategies can we think of in order to renew our approach to accident investigations? Who could we be inspired by?
