This capability development must include Somalia and its regions as well as other countries in the region, and support work by others involved in the wider stability and development of Somalia. Further to the decision of the CGPCS in Cairo to widen the mandate of Working Group 1 to include regional capability development, the United Kingdom as chair of the working group has led two needs assessments and prioritisation visits to East Africa and the Gulf of Aden States. The first mission in April – May 2009 produced initial outline findings to present to the Seoul High Level meeting on Piracy in June.

  • Contemporary Challenges to the Implementation of International
    Contemporary Challenges to the Implementation of Interna- tional Humanitarian Law Dr. Ray Murphy ∗ Introduction The problem of how to deal with prisoners of war is not a new one; even the Old Tes- tament calls for humane treatment of those captured in the course of armed conflict.1 The issue has assumed significant contemporary relevance as a result of developments in Iraq and Afghanistan. Rights of prisoners/detainees during armed conflict is gov- erned by the Law of Armed Conflict (formerly referred to as the Laws of War), or what is probably better known today as International Humanitarian Law. There is an obliga- tion on all states and armed forces to ensure that international humanitarian law is up- held. This involves a responsibility to disseminate information and educate popula- tions, but especially members of armed forces, regarding the principles of international humanitarian law. This branch of international law has always come under pressure during armed conflict, and the current conflicts taking place in Iraq and Afghanistan are no exception. In ancient times the concept of prisoners of war was unknown. Captives were re- garded as part of the spoils of victory, and they were frequently killed, enslaved, or held for ransom. Not surprisingly, prisoners of war have traditionally been among the most vulnerable groups in situations of armed conflict. Their treatment is a question with which the laws of war have been particularly concerned. Their detention is a form of permissible internment, and it should come as no surprise to learn that the laws governing armed conflict lay down detailed rules for their protection.
