Airwars is a not-for-profit transparency watchdog founded in 2014, dedicated to monitoring and assessing civilian harm from airpower-dominated military actions worldwide. Based in the UK, with a subsidiary registered in the Netherlands, Airwars aims to hold governments and military entities accountable for the human cost of warfare, advocating for non-combatants affected by conflicts across various regions, including Syria, Iraq, and Yemen. The organization archives open-source casualty reports and military claims to provide reliable evidence and promote justice.

Airwars employs a diverse team of conflict researchers, investigative journalists, and policy specialists to comprehensively document military impacts on civilian populations. Through its innovative tools, such as the Open Source Munitions Portal, Airwars empowers individuals and communities with the data needed to pursue accountability and change military practices. By emphasizing transparency and empathy, Airwars strives to create a more peaceful world where the dignity and needs of civilians are prioritized in military operations and policy-making.
