ABILA is pleased to announce Case Western Reserve University School of Law will be hosting our Midwest Regional Conference. The theme is ‘The Geneva Conventions at 75: Need for Innovation.’

Two dozen of the world’s leading experts in international humanitarian law will participate as speakers and panelists. In an age of new technology and means of warfare, it will focus on whether there is a need for a new Geneva Convention for the challenges of the 21st century?

The four panels will be:

1. Is there a need for a Geneva Convention on Treatment of Terrorists?
2. Is there a need for a Geneva Convention on Autonomous Weapon Systems?
3. Is there a need for a Geneva Convention on the application of IHL to Conflict in Outer Space?
4. Is there a need for a Geneva Convention on Cyber Warfare?
