“Protection of the Environment in Relation to Armed Conflict – Beyond the ILC”. A Workshop Report from an International Environmental Law Perspective.

On 7 and 8March 2019, fourteen speakers assembled in the historic library of the Aby Warburg Haus in Hamburg following the invitation of the law faculties of the University of Hamburg and Lund University. The Speakers addressed the topic ‘Protection of the Environment in Relation toArmedConflict – Beyond the ILC' (PErACWorkshop) which is currently being analysed by the International Law Commission (ILC).

The ILC has explored the field of ‘Protection of the Environment inRelation toArmed Conflict' by scrutinizing, inter alia, international environmental law (IEL) and international human rights law (IHRL) in relation to international humanitarian law (IHL). In doing so, the ILC divided the Draft Principles into the pre-conflict phase, the during armed conflict phase and the post-conflict phase – using a temporal approach as amethod for itswork. This allows for a broad perspective includingmore overlaps with IEL and IHRL.
