Who Is The Organiser?

Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law (RGNUL), Punjab, was established by the State Legislature of Punjab by passing the Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Punjab Act, (Punjab Act No. 12 of 2006). The Act incorporated a University of Law of national stature in Punjab, thereby fulfilling the need for a Centre of Excellence in legal education in the modern era of globalization and liberalization.

The Centre for Advanced Studies in International Humanitarian Law (CASH) is one of the Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Punjab’s flagship centres. The Centre aims to further its objective of bridging the gap between the theory and practice of humanitarian law. It is established to facilitate research and discourse in the various facets of international humanitarian law by analysing current policy approaches in tackling contemporary global issues. It further streamlines the process of learning through academic courses, programs, and publications.

International law typically governs the rights and responsibilities of States; criminal law, conversely, is paradigmatically concerned with prohibitions addressed to individuals, violations of which are subject to penal sanction by a State. The development of a body of international criminal law which imposes responsibilities directly on individuals and punishes violations through international mechanisms is relatively recent. Therefore, The Certificate Course aims to link discussions of legal theories, jurisprudence and practice to scholarship and opinions in exploring the themes of international criminal law. This Course will allow students to explore aspects of international law and justice to develop their understanding of the role of international criminal law and individual accountability as part of the international legal order.
