The American Red Cross of Greater Chicago and DePaul University are proud to host a free Undergraduate Workshop focused on Humanitarian Action & Humanitarian Principles in Armed Conflict.
The workshop, which is being held at DePaul’s Loop Campus February 8th and 9th, is a unique two-day program featuring discussion and hands-on exercises to introduce individuals to the topic of International Humanitarian Law. The workshop has been designed particularly for an undergraduate audience, but would be a good introduction into the topic for anyone. IHL-related topics will include a discussion on drones, the logistics of humanitarian aid delivery, operational protections for refugee camps, and more.

Seating is very limited, so participants are encouraged to register as soon as possible. To register for the event, please email Hilary.Duerksen@redcross.org. If you have any questions regarding the event or the International Services Program here at the American Red Cross, please feel free to contact 312.729.6238.
