In the past few years there has been a growing awareness of the need to strengthen implementation of international humanitarian law. States thus have to create the means enabling them to fulfil their obligation to respect and ensure respect for humanitarian law. This requires them to take action in peacetime and to adopt national measures to guarantee compliance with the law in all circumstances.

This report aims to compile information about relevant measures employed in the implementation of IHL in Germany, without being exhaustive. It therefore addresses the status of IHL in the German legal system, the status and control of the German armed forces as well as measures concerning, inter alia, the protection of civilians and civilian property, and the dissemination and enforcement of IHL. The report will appeal to anyone with an interest in IHL, including government officials, parliamentarians, the staff of non-governmental organisations, academics, journalists and the general public both in and outside Germany.


In December 2019, the 33rd International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent (International Conference) adopted Resolution 1 (33IC/19/R1), entitled “Bringing IHL Home: A Road Map for Better National Implementation of International Humanitarian Law” (Bringing IHL Home Resolution).

From one perspective, the modern development of international humanitarian law has been a remarkable success. Its rules are among the most detailed and extensive of international law. Its principal treaties enjoy almost universal acceptance. For the other side of the picture, one has only to look at what is happening in most recent armed conflicts to realize that serious violations of humanitarian law are rife all over the world. This leads to the conclusion that it iscompliance— respect for the rules — which is the major challenge facing humanitarian law today rather than its very existence or the adequacy of its provisions.
