Launch of Afghanistan evacuations report

The Rule of Law Asia Programme, Konrad Adenauer Stiftung had recently published its joint report with Leitner Centre for International School and Justice, Fordham School of Law titled “The world simply gave up": International law and the role of non-state entities in humanitarian evacuations in Afghanistan. The report report engages international law to document the experiences and examine the role of these non-State entities (NSEs) in the humanitarian evacuations from Afghanistan, as well as post-conflict obligations on the part of withdrawing States. It also seeks to shed light on the lived realities of evacuation processes; and the gaps that have been exposed by these experiences in terms of applicable laws, policies, and practices.
