Airwars
Airwars is a London-based not-for-profit transparency watchdog founded in 2014 by investigative journalist Chris Woods. The organization aims to document the human cost of war to promote accountability and reduce civilian harm in conflict zones. It also has a satellite office in Utrecht, Netherlands, through its subsidiary, Airwars Stichting. Airwars focuses on monitoring civilian harm allegations in conflict-affected regions, assessing incidents to determine casualties and responsible parties, engaging with militaries and policymakers to advocate for civilian protection, and conducting investigations in partnership with journalists and researchers. The organization maintains a public database that archives civilian harm incidents and publishes detailed reports on specific conflicts or trends. Airwars collaborates with military organizations, media outlets, civic society, and governments to provide data and resources that support accountability efforts and improve harm mitigation practices. It is funded by grants from various organizations, including the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust and Open Society Foundations.
