For the Spring 2025 Issue, selected papers have been taken from the STO Events listed below.
This special edition contains a selection of the papers that were presented at the NATO Science & Technology Organization (STO) Research Symposium titled 18th NATO OR&A Conference (STO-MP-SAS-192) held at the Residencia Militar Castañón de Mena, in Málaga, Spain, from 4 to 6 November 2024.
This event, overseen by the STO System Analysis and Studies (SAS) Panel, brought together 140 participants from the NATO OR&A community, representing NATO commands and agencies, national defence analysis and research organizations, centres of excellence, academia, and industry to discuss the conference theme “Collaboration to enable military advantage in an unstable world.” This theme highlighted NATO’s strength in its unity. Effective collaboration solves problems, builds trust and, ultimately, achieves defence objectives. Many contributions at the conference called attention to successful examples of OR&A collaboration among alliance members.
