Monrovia – The Liberia International Humanitarian Law Committee has held a one-day Stakeholders Round Table to review the draft Geneva Convention Act. Although Liberia is a state party to the Geneva Convention, the instrument has not been domesticated. The Liberia International Humanitarian Law Committee is an inter-agency committee that is headed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and co-chaired by the Law Reform Commission. The Committee works towards the domestication of all international humanitarian protocols that have been ratified by the Liberian government. Its priorities for this year include the domestication of the Geneva Convention as well as the Kampala Convention.
