When covering armed conflict, it’s essential that media professionals understand the basic principles and rules of international humanitarian law (IHL) because these can provide a lens through which to analyse and report.
In this course, you will learn about the principles and application of IHL, including how IHL is enforced, and which groups are afforded special protections. Frequent self-assessments reinforce the lessons and help you to measure your progress. Scenario-based assignments engage you to solve specific problems and point you to useful resources.
