Changing Laws of War

Available for over a year

Muna Baig argues that forced displacement should be taken seriously as a war crime. Muna is a lawyer who has spent time working with refugees and with international lawyers. She calls forced displacement the 'cinderella war crime' and argues that despite it being considered a war crime since at least the Second World War, there is little political will to enforce the law. She maintains that only by talking about forced displacement will that change. Producer: Beth Sagar-Fenton.
