Abstract. This paper summarizes the dynamics and causes of the Stava disaster, and highlights some risky design procedures that led to the 19 July 1985 tailings dam failure. It then presents the "Stava 1985 Foundation", which was formed to focus attention on such risks and to strengthen the culture of respect for human lives and safety
