Military Briefings

The U.S. Army

This unique series of events relating to military institutions and the law aims to improve our students’ knowledge of military actors and operations and build bridges between the military and civilian worlds.

Military guests – on active duty, retired or from the reserve – will discuss military institutions, their missions as well as operational and legal challenges they face in their daily work.

Six Themes Addressed in the Series:

1. Military organization and operational decision-making
2. Operational law
3. Integration of the law in military training
4. Practical examples of legal challenges in operations
5. Military justice
6. Weapons systems

Each briefing is divided into two parts: a presentation aimed at equipping students with basic knowledge on the selected theme, and a discussion, where the guest speaker engages with students on the challenges raised by the theme.

This initiative is coordinated by Pavle Kilibarda, Teaching Assistant at the Geneva Academy.
