Mission: Our goal is to promote understanding of international humanitarian law in the belief that a wider knowledge of the legal framework governing armed conflict will lead to greater pressure to prevent breaches of the law, and to punish those who commit them. International humanitarian law often seems an arcane and specialized field of study; its significance and potential force as a tool for fighting human suffering are sometimes obscured. The aim of the Crimes of War Project is to clarify this body of law, and the developments and debates that surround it, for a wider, non-specialist audience.
