Humanitarian Law & Policy is a unique space for timely analysis and debate on international humanitarian law (IHL) issues and the policies that shape humanitarian action.

Hosted by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), it is a place to identify trends, raise issues, consider future challenges and explore solutions as they pertain to IHL or humanitarian action.

Under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Elizabeth Rushing, we bring together informed academics, practitioners and others interested in engaging in serious, open-minded discussions and ongoing debates. Join the conversation by subscribing to receive our updates or submitting a post of your own.
