Interfaith Conference on Drone Warfare: Session 6 - Alternatives to Drones


Princeton Theological Seminary, Princeton, NJ
January 23 - 25, 2015

Please Note: Sessions 7 & 8 were not filmed.

What should we do instead? What alternatives do we point to that help end or limit the use of drones?

What are some of the alternative practices to the use of lethal drones in stopping violence by non-state and state actors, with attention to prevention, defusing violence, and healing?

What can the NGO community do to encourage the U.S. Government to investigate and invest in these alternatives?
