Elizabeth Minor is the Policy Manager at Stop Killer Robots, where she focuses on policy analysis and development, research, and advocacy for a treaty on autonomous weapons. She was previously an Advisor at Article 36, where she covered issues including autonomous weapons, armed drones, explosive weapons in populated areas, the protection of civilians in armed conflict, protecting education from attack, the under-representation of women and lower income countries in disarmament forums, and nuclear weapons. Prior to that she was a researcher at Every Casualty Counts (originally as part of Oxford Research Group), where she launched the global Casualty Recorders Network, and was responsible for studies into the methodologies and practices used to record the casualties of armed conflict and violence. Until 2021 she sat on the Board of Airwars. In 2019 she taught a course on International Disarmament Law as a visiting research scholar at O.P. Jindal Global University, India, and was also an honorary associate at the University of Liverpool, UK. Minor holds an MSc in Comparative Politics from the London School of Economics, and a BA in History from University College London.
