Call for Registrations: for 1st Nordic symposium on the Law of Armed Conflict, 8-9 May 2025
Scholars and legal practitioners are invited to the first Nordic symposium on the law of armed conflict, hosted by the Department of International and Operational Law of the Swedish Defence University and organised jointly with the Swedish Red Cross.
The symposium is the first of its kind implementing the pledge of Nordic states and Red Cross societies made at the 34th Red Cross conference in 2024. It aims to bring together academics, legal practitioners and other stakeholders from the military and humanitarian sectors and to strengthen collaboration, facilitate expertise and knowledge transfer, and enhance the dissemination of IHL/LOAC across the Nordic region.
Over 1.5 days, the symposium will host panels on three themes:
- Conduct of hostilities
- Protection
- Compliance
The current draft programme can be seen below.
