IA at UN Geneva

Our researcher Ana Duarte represented the InterAgency Institute in the Geneva UN meetings for the final meeting of 2022 of the Group of Governmental Experts (GGE) at the Convention on Conventional Weapons (CCW).  “In July, Stop Killer Robots campaigners flew in from all around the world to attend a week of diplomatic talks on killer robots at the UN in Geneva. The campaign lobbied states to launch negotiations of new international law on autonomy in weapons systems. What’s new about this? It was evident to us, and to very many diplomats in the room, that the CCW is not the appropriate forum to address the challenges posed by these weapons” (SKR).
