Where we work
We are a global organisation with local presence: our staff mainly work from our Stockholm hub and our three regional units and possess strong knowledge of international law and the region they work in.
The IHL Centre is made up of three geographical context units, supported by a technical and engagement unit.
Israel-Palestine Unit
The Israel-Palestine unit is a source of legal expertise supporting humanitarian and human rights action in the Israeli-Palestinian context.
Africa Unit
Operating mainly from our Nairobi hub, with an additional presence in Mali, the Centre’s Africa unit works across a range of conflict-affected contexts in Africa, with a particular focus on the Sahel, East Africa, the Horn of Africa and the Great Lakes region.
Middle East Unit
The Middle East unit provides analysis, training, and advice on the situations in Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Yemen and the wider region.
