About the Conference
International Law is a generic term for all the rules and principles that governs the relation of nations and other international institutions with each other. It also provides the normative framework for a world order which is based on responsible state behavior.
While a major part of this responsibility entails global peace and security, international law is equally concerned with wide range of issues dealing with human rights, disarmament, international crime, refugees, migration, treatment of prisoners, the use of force, and the conduct of war, among others.
The last decade has thrown some major challenges to international law and the need for a stable and well equipped world order has never been more acute. The major issues confronting international policymakers ranges from environmental concerns to a massive humanitarian crisis, global pandemic to hostile governments, unilateral declaration of independence to the controversy on self-determination, refugee crisis to questions on nationality to name a few.
Amidst this crisis, which is no less than a global catastrophe, it remains to be seen how international law copes up with the challenges.
