More pics from today's event. Audience members experienced first hand how seemingly small interpretive differences could translate into markedly different guidance to arms carriers on the battlefield regarding the protections afforded to noncombatants in war zones.

Today, @HR_Lab_UMN, administered by @UofMHRC & @UofMHumanRights, sponsored Embattled Battlefield Instruction. Prof. Cosette Creamer, Col. Mark Dakers & @UofMHRC fellow Tracey Blasenheim presented their research to a rapt crowd who then participated in an interactive exercise.
