Beside the renewed expression of their strong will to assume the role the IHFFC has been provided with by the international community, members will take the occasion of this annual meeting (24 to 26 February) to discuss opportunities and actions needed after the IHFFC has been granted observer status by the UN General Assembly last December.
Furthermore, issues and ideas developed during the workshop on IHL implementation mechanisms at the occasion of the Conference "60 Years of the Geneva Conventions and the Decades Ahead" organised by Switzerland last November in Geneva, will be deepened.
