SUMMARY:Murder on the Land and the Sea II: Accountability for Extrajudicial Drug War Killings Is Only a Matter of Time
DESCRIPTION:Side event for the 35th session of the UN Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice\nonline-only\, 4 June 2026\, 9:00-10:00am ET / 3:00-4:00pm CET / 9:00-10:00pm PHT\nWatch the video recording at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmWvtqICIV8 \nDrugs are an issue which – like migration\, social liberalization and economic tensions – has the capacity to shatter democratic and human rights norms. Perhaps no other extreme drug policy today does so more than extrajudicial killings (EJKs). As the former president of the Philippines awaits trial later this year\, the death toll from US strikes on alleged “drug boats” has raced past 200\, making state violence and accountability for it pressing issues in drug policy today. \n“Murder on the Land and the Sea II” discussed identified episodes of drug war EJKs in the 21st century\, their context and interrelationships\, and the international legal exposure officials may face – in some cases are already facing – in states that perpetrate EJKs or facilitate them through intelligence and law enforcement cooperation. \nSpeakers:\nJohn Ramming Chappell\, Advisory\, US Advocacy\, Center for Civilians in Conflict\nDino Singson de Leon\, Trustee\, Human Rights and People Empowerment Center\nSarah Harrison\, Nonresident Fellow\, Conventional Defense Program\, Stimson Center\nIntro and Moderation: David Borden\, Executive Director\, StoptheDrugWar.org \nOrganized by DRCNet Foundation AKA StoptheDrugWar.org\, with cosponsors Associazone Luca Coscioni\, Drug Policy Alliance\, Eumans\, Forum Droghe\, International Drug Law Advocacy & Resource Center\, No Peace Without Justice\, NoBox Transitions Philippines\, Philippine Coalition for the International Criminal Court\, Students for Sensible Drug Policy\, Veterans Action Council\, Washington Office on Latin America \nPlease contact David Borden at +1 202-236-8620 or borden@drcnet.org for further information.

SUMMARY:Global crisis and the potential of the ICC: relevance of ecocide as the fifth crime
DESCRIPTION:21th ASP to the ICC\, The Hague\, 6 December 2022\n\n\nThe Rome Statute is intended to address the “most serious crimes of concern to the international community as a whole”\, those acts which most “threaten the peace\, security and wellbeing of the world”. \nMass damage and destruction of vital ecosystems through human activity now constitutes precisely such a threat on a global scale. Such damage and destruction\, now increasingly referred to as “ecocide”\, not only has direct and devastating consequences for communities and nations now\, but also the severest of implications for the future of human civilisation as a whole\, as well as for the wider community of species with whom we share our planetary home. \nThere is strong relevance to the ICC’s remit\, therefore\, of the inclusion of ecocide within the scope of the Rome Statute. This is being recognised and discussed by a growing number of States Parties\, as well as by the Court itself\, as acknowledged during the 20th anniversary conference on 1st July of this year. \nThis side event examines the rapid global progress of this discussion\, the importance of the consensus legal definition of ecocide (Independent Expert Panel\, June 2021) in that progress\, and the potential for the ICC to play a decisive role in addressing the greatest challenge of our time. \nSpeakers:\nHon Elly van Vliet\, Honorary Consul of Vanuatu in The Netherlands\nJudge Chile Eboe-Osuji\, Former ICC President\nPhilippe Sands KC\, University College London\, Matrix Law\nDarryl Robinson\, Professor of Law\, Queens University Canada\nJojo Mehta\, Chair\, Stop Ecocide Foundation\nJosh Oxby\, UN Youth Advisor \nModerator:\nHRH Princess Esmeralda of Belgium \nThe event will be in English with French\, Spanish and Arabic interpretation. \nFor more information\, please check: https://www.stopecocide.earth
