Description
This week the Beyond the Byline podcast takes a deep dive into the global rules governing warfare - or international humanitarian law, as it’s officially called. The rules, established in the wake of the Second World War, seek to limit the effects of armed conflict, guided by the 1949 Conventions that 196 states are party to.To find out what the ground rules are, who is eligible for protection, and what happens when these rules are violated, we turn to Dr. Knut Dörmann, head of the delegation of the International Committee of the Red Cross to the EU, NATO, and Belgium, and Brian Finucane, senior adviser at the International Crisis Group, an independent organisation working to prevent wars and shape policies that will build a more peaceful world.
