More than a traditional e-learning module, this simulation places students in the shoes of the CEO of a fictitious extractives company operating in a conflict zone.  Along the way, users learn about IHL as a legal and ethical decision-making and evaluation framework that helps one manage the unique risks associated with doing business in a conflict-affected area. 

The modulehas been designed for university students in business-related disciplines.  We think it is also suitable for law students and those already in industry, including early career professionals, and also business managers, lawyers and in-house counsel, security personnel and other professionals.  We’ve also created an educator’s supplement to the module, attached –  which contains discussion questions, ideas for group activities and promotional material that you can use, as well as information about how to access and share with students and staff. 

War, Law and Business is free and accessible to all. To access visit: www.redcross.org.au/war-law-and-business.
