At Sida’s 60th, I honoured Sweden’s legacy—and sounded the alarm. Humanitarian principles are eroding. 2024 was the deadliest year for aid workers. If we abandon impartiality, we abandon humanity. Sweden must lead on law + accountability. #IHL #Sida60 #Humanitarian

Genocide begins not with violence, but with silence. As humanitarian law is eroded in Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan & beyond, impunity grows. The unfolding situation calls us to act—with courage & responsibility. Grateful to @FBAFolke, @QMUL for this vital dialogue.

Improving Fact-Finding for IHL and Harnessing Modern Technology In the great majority of cases, state or non-state armed forces engaging in violations of international humanitarian law (IHL) do not attempt to justify their acts by offering different interpretation...

In war, truth is the first casualty. Most IHL violations aren’t debated—they’re denied. That’s why real-time, reliable fact-finding is essential to accountability. Read attached article by my colleagues Manuel Galvis & Marko Milanovic 👉 EJIL: Talk! #IHL

Sustainability and due diligence: MEPs agree to delay application of new rules | News | European Parliament On Thursday, the European Parliament voted to postpone the application dates for new EU laws on due diligence and sustainability reporting requirements.

These rules aren’t red tape—they’re a safety net. They protect businesses from blind risks and uphold the values that define Europe: dignity, transparency, and sustainability.
Postponing is a test of what kind of future we stand for. #EUvalues #Sustainability

Världsledande forskarna: USA inte en demokrati USA är inte längre en demokrati. Det slår forskare fast – ett halvår innan världens största demokratimätning publiceras. – Just nu har USA med råge passerat gränsen till en autokrati, säger Staffan Li...

Rätt chockartat: USA placerar sig inte ens i gråzonen mellan demokrati och autokrati utan att hamnar i den näst sämsta kategorin – en ”elektoral autokrati”, det vill säga ett land som håller val, men där den styrande eliten i praktiken kontrollerar makten.
