The Minister of Defence is delighted to organise a 2-day conference (25-26 April 2023) on Autonomous Weapons Systems at the Maison des Arts et des Etudiants.
The conference aims to raise public awareness and offer all stakeholders (governments, industry, civil society and academia) a platform to discuss the challenges and risks associated with using Autonomous Weapons systems.
