On Thursday 2 December, IRW Project Leader Dr Lauren Gould contributed to a panel discussion on the 2015 Dutch bombardment of Hawija for the annual PAX Protection of Civilians Conference.

The panel addressed the joint research project between PAX and IRW in conjunction with our local partners in Iraq, the Al-Ghad League for Women and Childcare. As part of this research, we investigated how local people were affected by the Dutch airstrike in 2015 and how this event continues to impact their lives.
