Emerging Weapons Technologies & Human Rights Implications
Emerging Weapons Technologies & Human Rights Implications
16th November 2017 @ 12:00 pm - 5:30 pm
Over half of the world’s scientists are undertaking military research and military expenditure now is higher than at the height of the cold war. New weapons technologies are emerging which will transform future wars, border control and the very nature of security – and at a time of austerity when we can least afford it. These sessions on emerging weapons technologies explain the social, economic and human impact of new weapons technologies on the horizon and what they mean for us all.
