Details

The Geneva Conventions have always aimed to find a balance between war and humanity. How is this possible today, 70 years on, in a world shaped by urbanization, new technology, climate change, multipolar politics, a proliferation of armed groups and great power competition?

Dr Hugo Slim, Head of Policy at the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Geneva will discuss how the ICRC sees the prospects for humanity in 21st century conflicts.
