With this project, IRW aims to get a clearer picture of what AI and machine learning mean for 21st century warfare.

IRW is excited to announce our new Community Engaged Learning project under the Prototype Warfare programme.

This IRW project develops a fuller understanding of how humans shape technologies, and how technologies shape our actions in warfare.

PAX tells Airwars what they observed and heard while walking through Hawija and talking to the victims of the 2015 Dutch airstrike that killed 70 and destroyed over 400 buildings.

In this post, we provide the statement from the consortium of civil society organisations, including IRW, which reflects on the “Roadmap Process” with the Dutch MoD.

Today marks 6 years exactly since the Dutch airstrike on Hawija. Researchers at IRW Isa Zoetbrood and Guusje Bloemen together with Ali Maleki, research consultant at PAX for peace, introduce our joint ongoing research with local partner Al-Ghad that investigates the civilian harm effects of the airstrike.

The IRW teams up with Pax and introduces a new Community Engagement Learning project to study the reverberating effects of the Dutch airstike on Hawija, Iraq.

IRW works with the Dutch MoD to review the way in which it deals with, reports on and accounts for civilian harm as a consequence of Dutch military efforts.

This IRW project tracks and analyses the political rhetoric and narrative of armed drones in the Netherlands.
