IWI Mission
IWI continues the mission of the Irregular Warfare Podcast to support the community of irregular warfare professionals, providing a forum to cultivate the incorporation of irregular warfare competencies in the context of modern national security strategy. Capitalizing on its sponsorship by the Modern War Institute at West Point and the Empirical Studies of Conflict Project, IWI is a collaborative space to engage in professional and public discourse structured around three key pillars:
Content Production
IWI produces both biweekly podcasts and written content. This content is designed to marry practitioner perspectives with scholarly research to contribute to substantive dialogue on topics relevant to irregular warfare.
Engagements
IWI engagement includes an annual conference held in conjunction with the Empirical Studies of Conflict Project annual meeting. The conference format facilitates further collaboration through interactive panels and presentations.
Fellows Program
IWI fellows will include representation from across the community of interest. The fellows program provides a venue for scholars and practitioners to study and debate irregular warfare topics under the sponsorship of the Modern War Institute and the Empirical Studies of Conflict Project.
