Queen’s University, Kingston, ON
October 26, 2023. from 9am-12:30pm
 
The Asia-Pacific region is rapidly becoming a global centre of economic dynamism and a host of complex strategic challenges. It is also the home of a vibrant civil society invested in protecting the human security, human rights, and livelihoods of 60% of the world’s population. This event will highlight the need for Canada and the Canadian public to demonstrate global humanitarian leadership and sustained commitment to help address Asia-Pacific populations’ concerns.
 
The event will profile international humanitarian law (IHL), Maritime Law, Canada’s contributions to regional security, and humanitarian and disaster relief interventions. The conference will be of particular interest to law, policy, and international affairs students, academics, military personnel, legal professionals, and NGO representatives, among others.
