Help the Irregular Warfare Initiative Grow

Since we released our first podcast in May 2020, the Irregular Warfare Initiative, a 501(c)(3), has expanded to include the publication of over 112 podcasts (garnering over 1.3 million downloads) and nearly 200 articles, coordinated over 30 community events in locations around the world, built a social media following of more than 35,000, and developed three cohorts of IWI Fellows. The IWI team includes 70 volunteers, with a mix of practitioners from across the military and interagency, as well as researchers and academics.

IWI has three strategic objectives:

• Connect the IW Community: Develop a robust network of irregular warfare professionals across diverse sectors to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange.
• Drive Public Dialogue: Shape and lead public dialogue on irregular warfare through high-quality content including publications, podcasts, and events.
• Invest in IW Leaders: Empower talented IWI volunteers and the broader professional community by providing opportunities for growth and mentorship.

Your donation will help us expand on this vision and achieve two key outcomes:

• First, IWI will expand community connections through organizing in-person events for the community, amplifying the impact of existing products through a deliberate marketing and outreach strategy, and providing resources for each product and program director to expand their production (Our Products).
• Second, the organization’s resilience will be increased by hiring paid team members to execute key administrative and enabling tasks critical to organizational growth, while allowing IWI volunteers to focus on the substance of content produced (Our People).

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND KEEP WARFARE IRREGULAR!
