Abstract:

The cornerstone of the 1977 Additional Protocols is the principle of distinction. This multimedia presentation provides a concise introduction to the Additional Protocols and the vital need to distinguish between combatants and civilians in modern armed conflicts. Film and photographic testimonials are included from those caught up in armed conflict, powerfully illustrating the significance of the Additional Protocols and the impact that they have had on individual lives. A useful resource section is also included featuring a selection of material related to the Additional Protocols. This includes the full texts of the Protocols I and II, films, a brochure and poster.
