This seminar was held on 8 Oct 5-6pm, with Prof Chandra Sriram speaking on Mass atrocities in conflict-affected settings. The video will be made available online shortly.
Chandra Sriram (Professor of International Law and International Relations, University of East London) drew on her research in Sierra Leone, Kenya, Sri Lanka and Colombia as she explored three critical issues in developing responses to mass atrocities ahead of the publication of her Professional Development Reading Pack on the same topic:
- Relationships between abuses and violent conflict, and the need to attend to economic, social and cultural rights violations
- International policy responses such as international criminal law and transitional justice
- Challenges of assessing the effectiveness of responses to abuses.
