About the application:

General This application provides offline access to 80 treaties and another documents relating to international humanitarian law (IHL) – most notably, the Geneva Conventions and their Extra Protocols, the ICRC’s original and updated Commentaries on the Conventions and Extra Protocols, and the guidelines of customary IHL identified by the ICRC’s 2005 Study on customary IHL. The application aims to help the promotion and implementation of IHL worldwide, by providing simple access to IHL treaties and the customary IHL guidelines in six languages. The ICRC hopes this application can assist increase the use of IHL by specialists in their humanitarian dialogue and negotiation, inform the overall law and policy debate, help the teaching and promotion of IHL, and ultimately contribute to strengthening safety for everyone affected by armed conflict. IHL Treaties The section on IHL treaties is divided by subject and States Parties. Each treaty has a home page with an introduction; specific articles can be accessed from this page. The Geneva Conventions and their Extra Protocols are accompanied by the ICRC’s original and updated Commentaries. The different articles of each treaty can be consulted by swiping from right to left and from left to right. Tapping on “About this text” gives players access to general info about a treaty. Tapping on “States Parties” – on the top left of the page – lets players see the list of States party to that treaty, along with the dates of signature and ratification/accession, and the dates of any texts of declaration/reservation. Tapping on the name of a State redirects players to a list of all the treaties in force for that State. By tapping on “States Signatories” – on the top right of the page – players can see the list of States Signatories for each treaty, along with the dates of signature; tapping on the name of a particular State, they can also see all the treaties ratified by it. Customary IHL The section on customary IHL is divided by subject, and then by rule (in English only). Each rule comes with an explanation. Similar practice for each rule can be ascertained online by clicking “Similar practice” at the top of the page; the user’s device must be connected to the internet to access the “Similar practice”. Languages and PDFs The application’s interface can be set in any of the six languages listed in the side menu: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.

All accessible PDFs in the user’s device language are automatically downloaded when the application is first installed.
