On the latest episode of the Asymmetrical Haircuts podcast, IRW’s Lauren Gould dives into the ripple civilian harm effects of the 2015 airstrike on Hawija.

Join IRW researchers in the Tivoli for the launch of their latest book and a lively debate on remote warfare, civilian harm and democratic control

Reflection on IRW’s panel ‘Prototyping the Future of War: Imagining Ludic, Hybrid, and Autonomous Warfare’

In its latest book publication, IRW brings together researchers, politicians, NGOs, lawyers, and victims of the 2015 Dutch F16 bombing of Hawija to reflect on remote warfare, civilian harm and democratic control.

Come join our team!

In an op-ed in Het Parool, IRW’s Jip van Dort and PAX’s Erin Bijl argue that a modest part of the increased Defence budget should be invested in the creation of victim compensation funds.

IRW looks back on an illuminating Realities of Algorithmic Warfare Symposium.

On Tuesday 14 June from 20:00 to 21:30 CEST, dr. Gould will lecture on the ‘remote warfare paradox’ and her successful efforts to expose the civilian harm effects of the 2015 Dutch airstrike of Hawija at the Instituto Cervantes, Utrecht.

In her latest article ‘”Prototype warfare”: Innovation, optimisation, and the experimental way of warfare” dr. Marijn Hoijtink sets out to map the contours of a new regime of warfare.

On 8 June 2022, IRW’s Prototype Warfare project will host a symposium to discuss the current state of the development, deployment, and regulation of autonomy in defence systems.
