War Crimes

The War Crimes Research Group (WCRG) is based in the Department of War Studies at King's College London. It brings together researchers across a number of disciplines and encourages a range of approaches to the study of war crimes and war.

The core aims and objectives of the group are to provide a forum for debate on issues related to war crimes prosecution and transitional justice mechanisms, to contribute to the development of research and writing on issues related to war crimes and war, to encourage dialogue between, on the one hand, academics and researchers and on the other, practitioners and policy-makers, and to contribute to research training and the professional development of postgraduate research and taught MA students.
