As this year's International Winter University on IHL and IHRL comes to an end, we find ourselves at a critical moment for the implementation of International Law. In times of profound global challenges, the dissemination of and continued commitment to IHL and IHRL are more important than ever, as they form an essential foundation for safeguarding our shared humanity and dignity.

This year's IWU offered an intense, timely, and highly rewarding programme, marked by thoughtful discussions on the relevance of IHL in contemporary conflicts, the challenges of implementation, and truly inspiring exchanges among participants and lecturers alike.

This photo captures only a moment, but it reflects the collective engagement, critical thinking and shared commitment of a truly inspiring group of participants and lecturers who made this edition so meaningful.

The IWU team would like to sincerely thank everyone involved, and we look forward to crossing paths again through future collaborations and a continued commitment to advancing and advocating for International Law.

Sneak Peek Alert: The Exam Map Reveal

As our Winter School on IHL and IH with a specific focus on Navigating Implementation and Compliance Challenges is coming to an end, we’re excited to share a first glimpse of what our participants will soon be working on in their upcoming exam, starting tomorrow.

This year’s exam is built around a fictional case set in the Luminous Land Region,the Land where everything unfolds. To set the scene, we’re revealing how the creation of the map began and how the final map looks.

We wish our participants all the best while preparing for the exam!

Kudos to our assistant Sabrina Ohm for her excellent work on this case.
