The research for the study was conducted in the context of the International Committee of the Red Cross\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icrc.org\/en\/war-and-law\/treaties-customary-law\/geneva-conventions\">project<\/a> on the Updated Commentaries on Geneva Conventions, which both authors are involved in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study was presented on a panel dedicated to <strong>\u201cUnresolved Foundational Issues\u201d<\/strong>, which additionally featured papers on the protection of civilians during the invasion phase of international armed conflict (by Professor Michael Meier, Emory University) and the personal scope of application of the Fourth Convention (by Professor Marten Zwanenburg, Amsterdam University).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The annual Lieber Workshop is a by-invitation-only Chatham House Rule guided event intended to foster an exchange of views among military practitioners, government officials, academia and civil society on some of the salient issues related to the applicability and interpretation of the law of armed conflict. This year\u2019s workshop was coordinated by Ms. Jelena Pejic, the Institute\u2019s Lieber Scholar for 2023, with the support of Captain Margaret Kotlik (West Point). It consisted of six panels, each focusing on different aspects of the protection of civilians during armed conflicts, including the legal constraints on permissible security measures, the prohibitions of forced conscription and displacement, and the role of human rights law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/lawbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/11\/Lieber-Workshop-2023_-Kubo-Macak-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2569\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/lawbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/11\/Lieber-Workshop-2023_-Kubo-Macak-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/lawbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/11\/Lieber-Workshop-2023_-Kubo-Macak-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/lawbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/11\/Lieber-Workshop-2023_-Kubo-Macak-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/lawbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/11\/Lieber-Workshop-2023_-Kubo-Macak.jpg 1385w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The United States Military Academy hosts the 2023 Lieber Institute Workshop.
