Military Briefings
ICRC
In this Military Briefing, co-organized with Geneva Call, panelists will discuss the operational challenges and opportunities of turning guerrillas into deminers.
The discussion will focus on the Colombian experience and the work of the humanitarian demining organization Humanicemos DH, the first in the world to be formed entirely of demobilized ex-combatants.
All interested participants need to register to attend this event via this online form.
Military Briefings are a unique series of events relating to military institutions and the law. They aim to improve our students’ knowledge of military actors and operations and build bridges between the military and civilian worlds.
