This event is a continuation of the survey and interviews conducted by the IWC Integration and Engagement department with the intent to compare and contrast the conceptualization of irregular warfare between different European institutions. The value of this event is to expose U.S. stakeholders involved in the development of the definition of IW and/or in IW activities to the European conceptualization of IW to better understand differences and potential connection points enabling more effective international cooperation. The event directly contributes to the successful execution of the IWC`s task prescribed in the FY23 NDAA as “engage and coordinate with Federal departments and agencies and with academia, nongovernmental organizations, civil society, and international partners to discuss and coordinate efforts on security challenges in irregular warfare.”
