International Law & International Humanitarian Law

Learning goes far beyond the classroom. 🌍

Near the end of the course, participants of our International Law & International Humanitarian Law programme went to visit the ICRC Museum (Int Committee of the Red Cross ) as part of a field trip, gaining more perspective on the work of one of the world’s leading humanitarian organizations.

Through the museum’s powerful exhibitions, students explored the realities of armed conflict and the humanitarian challenges it creates, while reflecting on the fundamental principles and rules that seek to protect human life and dignity during war.

This inspiring visit brought course concepts to life, deepened their understanding of the challenges faced by humanitarian actors in conflict settings, and encouraged meaningful discussions about the role of international humanitarian law in protecting civilians and those affected by armed conflict.
