SUMMARY:Women\, Genocide\, and The Media: Lessons Learned Since Nuremberg
DESCRIPTION:The impact of genocide on women and girls is catastrophic.

SUMMARY:Nuremberg’s Legacy: the Crime of Aggression - an Update on the Special Tribunal for Ukraine and Broader Jurisdiction for the ICC
DESCRIPTION:Eighty years after the Nuremberg Trials\, the crime of aggression—first prosecuted under the charge of “crimes against peace”—remains one of the most complex and contested areas in international criminal law. This session explores how Nuremberg’s legacy continues to shape modern debates over accountability for acts of aggression and the evolving jurisdiction of international courts. \nExperts will examine current efforts to establish a Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression against Ukraine\, assessing both its legal foundations and its implications for the future of international justice. The discussion will also consider proposals to expand the International Criminal Court’s jurisdiction over aggression\, reflecting on how the Nuremberg precedent informs the pursuit of justice for unlawful uses of force today. \nThis timely conversation brings together leading voices in international law to ask: How far has the world come in holding leaders accountable for aggression—and how far do we still have to go? \n12:00pm EST in Jamestown\, Washington DC\, and New York // 17:00GMT in London\, Leicester\, and Cambridge // 18:00 CET in Nürnberg // 11:00am CST in Chicago and Independence \nClick Here to Register for the Zoom Webinar

SUMMARY:Closing Ceremony: How Did it End? Nuremberg from a Historical Perspective
