My Participation in the 11th World Forum for Democracy 2023, orchestrated by the Council of Europe. The event fostered in-depth conversations about current democratic concerns, offering a stage for experts and participants to explore diverse contentious topics concerning democracy and the construction of peace.

I was thrilled to participate as a panelist in the second annual conference of The Kurdistan Center for International Law, where I presented a topic on "Drones and Nano-Drones: A Moral and Legal Reading in the Light of International Law." The conference was held on December 16, 2023, in Sulaimani City, Kurdistan region of Iraq. This topic is essentially a scientific project on drone warfare, examining it from three different perspectives:

- Drones and the End of Just War Theory: Philosophical Perspective.

- Drones and PlayStation Mentality: A Moral Reading.

- Drones and Responsibility: A Legal Framework.

I was thrilled to participate in #GulfResearchMeeting2024 - the second workshop, "The GCC between the Kurdistan Region and Iraq," organized by the Gulf Research Centre Cambridge at the University of Cambridge, UK. The title of our paper, coauthored with Dr. Bzhar Ahmed was "Targeting Sovereignty: A Study of Drone Warfare and Its Implications for Iraq and the Kurdistan Region."

Our research focuses on the use of drones and the violation of the sovereignty of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region, which, in addition to threatening the country's sovereignty, also causes civilian casualties. We have proposed legal regulation of the use of drones in international law and a redefinition of sovereignty.
