The conference is organised by the Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq (CASI) , a registered society at the University of Cambridge. The society has an exclusively humanitarian focus, does not support the Iraqi regime and is not opposed to military sanctions on Iraq. The views of speakers are not necessarily the views of CASI and vice versa.
