Redeeming the ICC Mandate: Possibility for Referring the Situation in Syria Under Article 14

December 4, 2024 @ 8:00 am - 9:30 am

Side Event to the 23rd session of the Assembly of States Parties to the Rome Statute

 

Date: Wednesday, 4 December 2024

Time: 8:00 AM

Duration: 90 minutes

Location: Antarctica Room, World Forum, The Hague

 

Objective

This event will explore the critical role the International Criminal Court (ICC) could play in addressing the Syrian crisis. The panel will analyse the institutional risks and credibility challenges the Court faces if it fails to intervene meaningfully. Discussions will focus on how a State Party-led referral under Article 14 can bolster the ICC’s legitimacy and create a pathway for accountability in Syria. The panel will also emphasise the importance of civil society and State Party sponsorship to maximise the impact of accountability efforts.
