What We Do

Fieldwork, in action.

A representative sample of where APIDS has worked over the past decade — across Ministries of Defense, conflict-affected regions, refugee settings, and the institutions that shape the next generation.

While some of our more sensitive and significant projects are confidential, the below is a representative sample of our fieldwork.

Training

Law of Armed Conflict — Ministries of Defense

For two decades, APIDS has partnered with Ministries of Defense and armed forces to train personnel — before they go to war — on the Geneva Conventions and the Law of War: especially regarding how to treat and protect civilians, the wounded, and the innocent in conflict.
