  • Final consultation on a political declaration to protect civilians from explosive weapons
    Jun 16 2022
    States, civil society, and international organisations will meet in Geneva on 17 June 2022 to finalise a milestone international agreement on the use of explosive weapons in populated areas. In this episode, coordinator of the International Network on Explosive Weapons (INEW) Laura Boillot, senior researcher at Human Rights Watch Bonnie Docherty and executive director of Project Ploughshares Cesar Jaramillo discuss the final text, which will be presented to states at the meeting. More than 65 states have participated in this political declaration process, including some major users of explosive weapons. Once the text is finalised, the International Network on Explosive Weapons (INEW) will call on all states to join the political declaration at the earliest opportunity and, in doing so, to demonstrate their commitment to strengthening the protection of civilians in armed conflict.

  • A political declaration to protect civilians from explosive weapons
    Mar 25 2022
    From Mosul, Aleppo, Raqqa, Taiz, Donetsk, Fallujah and Sana'a, and now to Kyiv and Mariupol - each year tens of thousands of civilians are killed and injured across the world as a result of use of explosive weapons in towns, cities and other populated areas. This pattern of harm has been well-documented to show that when heavy explosive weapons are used in towns and cities - it is civilians that suffer the most. In this episode, INEW’s Coordinator and Steering Committee members share views on the last draft of the political declaration in preparation for the negotiations of an international political declaration to protect civilians from the use of explosive weapons in populated areas. Also available on Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, Audible and Amazon Music.

  • The impact of bombs on a city’s infrastructure
    Mar 10 2022
    A city which is subjected to bombing and shelling faces a high likelihood of being turned to rubble. But it also ruins the fabric of the city, ruining lives and livelihoods, negatively impacting the community at large, and often even after fighting has stopped. In this episode, INEW gathers experts who speak about the impact of explosive weapons on critical infrastructure including homes, hospitals and schools, as well as electricity and water systems, and the knock-on effects this has on the provision of essential services such as healthcare. It also explores the impact that explosive weapons have on the environment. Drawing on testimonies from survivors in Nagorno-Karabakh and cases such as that of the Hodeidah Port in Yemen, this episode aims to highlight the impact of damage and destruction to critical infrastructure, including the reverberating knock-on effects and how they impact peoples’ lives.
