I’m working on gathering support for research and policy work focused on strategies for protecting civilians from deadly attacks (both kinetic and information/data based) from small drones, which is an area that desperately needs more attention.

Agreed, spheres of influence and all Small, local support can spread into bigger things, and even if it doesn't it is worthwhile

Also: for anyone who has a modicum of privilege and wants to help: Don't go white savior mode, the ones most affected know best what is needed FIRST for their communities
