SUMMARY:Environmental Harm as an International Crime
DESCRIPTION:Explore how international law\, ecocide and visual storytelling can advance accountability for serious environmental destruction.\nWhat happens when environmental destruction is so severe that regulation\, compensation or civil litigation no longer seem enough? When should those responsible be held personally accountable—and could serious harm to the environment be treated as an international crime? \nFrom pollution and extractive industries to the destruction of ecosystems during armed conflict\, environmental harm can have devastating and long-lasting consequences for communities\, livelihoods and future generations. Yet international criminal law remains one of the least-used tools for addressing these harms. \nThis event\, organised by The Promise Institute for Human Rights\, Art Works Projects and The Hague Humanity Hub\, brings together photographers\, lawyers\, advocates and climate justice actors to explore how this may be changing. \nThe evening begins with the work of Oyewole Lawal and Edwin Ndeke\, Emerging Lens Fellows whose photography documents environmental degradation and its consequences for the people and communities living with it. Their work provides a human and visual starting point for a wider conversation about environmental destruction\, responsibility and justice. \nFrom there\, we turn to the law. International criminal law already provides some possibilities for addressing serious environmental harm through existing crimes\, including war crimes and crimes against humanity. At the same time\, a growing international movement is working to establish ecocide as a new international crime\, creating a clearer legal route for addressing severe and widespread or long-term environmental destruction. \nRecent developments are bringing these questions closer to legal practice. In December 2025\, the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court published its Policy on Addressing Environmental Damage Through the Rome Statute\, setting out how environmental damage can be considered within the ICC’s existing mandate. The Promise Institute for Human Rights at UCLA and Climate Counsel have also developed a Manual on Prosecuting International Environmental Crimes\, drawing in part on experience investigating the environmental consequences of the war in Ukraine. \nTogether\, these developments raise an important question: what would it take to move from recognising environmental destruction as an injustice to investigating and prosecuting it as a crime? \nSpeakers \nPhotographers in Conversation: \nOyewole Lawal — Photojournalist\, sociologist and Emerging Lens Fellow\, whose work explores the relationship between people\, communities and their environment. \nEdwin Ndeke — Photojournalist\, documentary photographer and Emerging Lens Fellow documenting social\, economic and environmental issues. \nSteve Bynum – Human Rights Advocate\, Journalist\, Producer\, Worldview Podcast\, and Executive Director\, Art Works Projects \nCommentators: [alphabetical]\nKate Mackintosh — Executive Director of The Promise Institute for Human Rights Europe\, co-author of the Manual on Prosecuting International Environmental Crimes and member of the Independent Expert Panel for the Legal Definition of Ecocide. \nNicole Ann Ponce — International Climate Justice Lawyer\,  Global Advocacy Lead at World’s Youth for Climate Justice (WYCJ) \nPatricia Willocq — Diplomatic director for Africa and Francophone countries at Stop Ecocide International\, Founder of Stop Ecocide Belgium\, Humanitarian Photographer\,  Visual Storyteller\,  Creative Strategist \nReinhold Gallmetzer — Appeals Counsel and Environmental Crimes Focal Point at the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court\, speaking about the ICC Prosecutor’s Policy on Addressing Environmental Damage Through the Rome Statute and the possibilities and limits of the ICC’s current mandate. \nHelena Szczupak (closing keynote speaker) — Legal Counsel at EcoJustice.earth\, Research Fellow at the Center for Human Rights Advocacy \nModerated by: \nLeslie Thomas\, Filmmaker and Human Rights Advocate\, Director of Programming\, Art Works Projects and MIRA \nOur speakers will explore what international criminal law can already do\, where its limitations lie\, and what recognising ecocide as an international crime could add. \nWe will look at questions including: \nWhen can serious environmental harm already amount to an international crime?\nWhat does criminal law offer that environmental and climate litigation does not—and where do other legal strategies remain essential?\nHow can environmental destruction be documented and evidenced in ways that can support future investigations and prosecutions?\nHow does applying existing international criminal law relate to the campaign to criminalise ecocide?\nWhat roles can lawyers\, investigators\, journalists\, photographers\, civil society organisations and climate advocates play in bringing the first cases forward?\nThe discussion will connect legal developments in The Hague with experiences and environmental harms occurring around the world\, including the particular relevance of the ecocide debate for African countries facing the consequences of extraction\, pollution and environmental degradation. \nProgramme \n17:00–17:30 Doors open\, registration and welcome \nLivestream programme begins at 17:30 \n17:30–17:40 Opening and introduction \n17:40–18:00 Visual introduction: Emerging Lens photographers introduce selected work and the environmental harms documented \n18:00–18:45 Panel conversation: Environmental Harm as an International Crime – existing legal tools\, environmental crimes and ecocide \n18:45–19:00 Audience Q&A and discussion \n19:00–19:10 Closing reflections and introduction to the exhibition opening on 3 November \nLivestream programme ends at 19:10 \n19:10–20:00 Networking drinks and exhibition viewing \nFrom visual evidence to environmental justice\nPart of The Hague Climate Week\nThis event is part of The Hague Climate Week 2026 and also forms the opening conversation of a two-day programme exploring environmental destruction through law\, photography and visual advocacy. \nOn 3 November\, the work of Emerging Lens Fellows Oyewole Lawal and Edwin Ndeke will be presented in a public exhibition and participatory programme at The Grey Space in the Middle\, looking more closely at waste\, consumption\, labour\, environmental degradation and the communities dealing with their consequences. \nTogether\, the two events ask how images\, lived experience\, advocacy and law can reinforce one another in making environmental harm visible—and turning recognition into accountability and action. \nAbout the organisers \nThe Hague Humanity Hub is a not for profit foundation based in The Hague\, the international city of peace and justice and home to hundreds of organisations working towards a better word. We offer an open and inclusive platform for changemakers to connect both locally and internationally\, building bridges across themes\, sectors\, and disciplines. \nArt Works Projects (AWP) is a Chicago- and The Hague-based nonprofit that uses visual storytelling\, new media and public engagement to confront human rights abuses and social injustice. Working with artists and partners around the world\, AWP creates exhibitions\, films and public programmes that connect powerful stories with dialogue\, advocacy and action. \nThe Promise Institute for Human Rights at UCLA School of Law is a centre for human rights education\, research and advocacy\, with locations in Los Angeles and Europe. The Promise Institute Europe advances research and practice in international law and human rights\, with a particular focus on their intersection with environmental and planetary justice. \nThis event is supported by HPM\, our livestream partner. \nPrivacy\nBy attending this event\, you acknowledge that photographs and/or video may be taken for documentation and promotional purposes by The Hague Humanity Hub.

SUMMARY:Beyond waste: People\, Materials and What We Leave Behind
DESCRIPTION:What happens to the things we consume once we no longer want them — and who deals with what we leave behind? \nAt the centre of this exhibition are the works of Nigerian photojournalist and sociologist Oyewole Lawal and Kenyan documentary photographer Edwin Ndeke. Bringing together projects from Lagos and Nairobi\, their collaborative storytelling shines a light on waste pickers: an often-overlooked workforce that plays an essential role in collecting\, recovering\, and recycling materials from growing urban waste streams. \nTheir photography provides the starting point for a wider conversation about our relationship with waste. Moving from the experiences captured in their images\, the programme explores the systems that produce waste and the environmental and social consequences that follow\, with a particular focus on textiles and fashion. \nTogether with researchers\, recycling practitioners and artists\, we will look at both the challenges — from textile waste and chemicals to patterns of production and consumption — and the alternatives. Through conversation\, demonstrations\, and hands-on activities\, visitors can explore recycling and circular approaches\, natural dyes\, sustainable creative practices\, and different ways of thinking about the materials we produce\, use\, and discard. \nThe evening invites us to look beyond waste itself and consider the people\, choices and systems behind it — and what we might do differently. \nBuilding on the legal and accountability conversation of 2 November\, this event shifts attention towards the people\, places and lived experiences behind environmental harm. Photography becomes an entry point for discussing climate justice in a way that is accessible beyond professional climate and legal communities. \nThe programme has three layers: \nArtist conversation: Behind the images\n– Oyewole and Edwin: Introduction to the photographers\, their work and the communities and environmental challenges documented.\nModerated conversation: From Waste to Systems\n– Connecting visual storytelling with climate justice\, environmental accountability and ethical representation.\nParticipatory element\n– Hands-on activities allow visitors to respond to the work\, contribute their perspectives or explore how visual storytelling can be used for climate engagement and advocacy. \nProgramme: \n16:00 – 16:30 Doors open\, registration and welcome \n16:30 – 17:00 Opening and introduction to artists \n17:00 – 17:30 Conversation/panel \n17:30 – 18:15 Participatory element \n18:15 – 19:00 Networking with drinks and exhibition viewing \nAbout the organisers \nThe Hague Humanity Hub is a not for profit foundation based in The Hague\, the international city of peace and justice and home to hundreds of organisations working towards a better word.

SUMMARY:Community Drinks: Imagining Climate Resilience
DESCRIPTION:What if your next game-changing connection is just a drink away? \nJoin us for a special edition of The Community Drinks in partnership with The Climate Justice Community during The Hague Climate Week to wind down around a glass\, make new connections\, and get inspired by the panel conversation of the evening. For this edition we are leaving our usual home at The Hague Humanity Hub for a new location at EnergieKas\, a rooftop greenhouse that is the perfect setting to get away from your busy schedule and enjoy after-hours with purposeful conversations. \nWhat can you expect? \nJoin the Community Drinks on “Imagining Climate Resilience” from 17:00 to 19:00 for an evening of conversation\, reflection\, and connection around a word that is everywhere in climate work yet rarely means the same thing twice: resilience. \nResilience is used by almost everyone\, but its meaning shifts depending on who is speaking. Does it mean bouncing back to how things were\, or transforming the systems that made people vulnerable in the first place? And crucially: resilience of what\, to what\, and for whom? The way we answer shapes whose needs get prioritised\, who carries the burden of adapting\, and who is held responsible. \nWe will explore questions such as: \nWhat do we actually mean when we talk about climate resilience\, and whose definition counts?\nIs resilience about recovering from shocks\, or about changing the conditions that create vulnerability in the first place?\nAnd finally\, how can organisations make sure local knowledge and lived experience genuinely shape what resilience looks like in practice?\nThrough a panel of spotlight speakers from different corners of the ecosystem and an open discussion\, the evening will create space to exchange experiences\, challenge assumptions\, and think critically about a concept we too often take for granted. \nWho are the speakers? \nThe speakers for this edition will be announced shortly before the event. We are bringing together two complementary perspectives from across the peace and justice ecosystem\, exploring the relationship between voice\, power\, storytelling\, representation\, and visibility. \nRather than approaching the topic from a single discipline\, the conversation will connect experiences from different parts of the ecosystem and invite participants to reflect on how the decisions we make about who we listen to\, whose stories we share\, and what we choose to highlight are shaped and can shape what the international community ultimately understands and acts upon. \nWho is it for? \nIf you are interested in connecting with people and their work towards a more peaceful\, just and sustainable world\, this event is for you. Whatever your role or sector\, join Community Drinks to relax\, exchange perspectives\, and connect with this vibrant community committed to making the world more peaceful\, just and sustainable\, one conversation at a time. \nDate: Thursday\, the 5th of November\nTime: 17:00–19:00\nLocation: EnergieKas\, Helena van Doeverenplantsoen 3\, 2512 ZB Den Haag \nCome meet fellow professionals\, exchange perspectives\, and explore how technology and humanity can evolve together. \nWe look forward to welcoming you. \nPrivacy Policy \nThe Humanity Hub collects your name\, email\, and organization (if you have one) when you sign up for events\, so they can manage the event and tell you about future ones.

SUMMARY:Just Peace Movie Night - Climate Justice Week: The Here Now Project
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special edition of Just Peace Movie Night\, taking place as part of The Hague Climate Week\, from 2–8 November 2026. As part of this city-wide programme around climate and sustainability\, we invite you to an evening of film\, reflection and conversation on climate change\, climate justice and meaningful local action. \nExperience climate change through the eyes and cameras of the people living through it. The Here Now Project\, directed by Jon Siskel and Greg Jacobs\, brings together extraordinary first-hand footage of climate extremes from communities around the world. Without narration or traditional interviews\, the film puts lived experience at the centre and confronts audiences with the immediate and interconnected reality of climate change. \nAbout the film – The Here Now Project \nThe Here Now Project tells the story of a year of climate extremes through footage captured by ordinary people experiencing these events themselves. Rather than relying on journalists\, experts or filmmakers to interpret what is happening\, the film places the cameras in the hands of the people living through these events. \nWithout traditional narration or interviews\, the film creates an immediate and personal perspective on climate change\, bringing together experiences from communities around the world. The footage reveals how climate extremes affect people’s everyday lives\, while highlighting the interconnected nature of a global crisis. \nFollowing the screening\, a moderated conversation will explore how we document and tell stories about climate impacts\, whose perspectives are centred\, and the ethical responsibilities involved in using personal footage of people experiencing disaster and loss. \nThe conversation will then turn towards action: how can the urgency and emotions generated by stories like these become meaningful engagement rather than helplessness? Local changemakers and initiatives from The Hague will share concrete examples of what climate action can look like at community level\, connecting the global experiences shown in the film to people and initiatives taking action here. \nConversation themes \nLived experience and storytelling – What changes when climate events are documented by the people experiencing them rather than interpreted by journalists\, experts or filmmakers?\nEthics of documentation – Who owns these images and stories? How should highly personal footage be contextualised\, and what responsibilities arise when people are injured\, displaced or die? How can we avoid turning suffering into spectacle?\nFrom urgency to agency – Stories of climate impacts can leave us feeling overwhelmed\, but they can also inspire action. What meaningful action is possible locally\, and what examples from The Hague show that communities can make a difference? \n  \nProgramme \n18:30 – 19:00 – Doors open / arrival \n19:00 – 19:10 – Welcome and introduction\, including a short introduction by Jon Siskel and Greg Jacobs \n19:10 – 20:30 – Screening: The Here Now Project \n20:30 – 21:00 – Post-screening conversation: lived experience\, storytelling and climate justice \n21:00 – 21:15 – Audience Q&A\, closing reflections and possible call to action \n21:15 – 22:00 – Networking drinks \nTickets: –\nLocation: De Energiekas – Helena van Doeverenplantsoen 3\nDate & Time: 06 November 2026 | 18:30 – 22:00 \nAbout Just Peace Movie Nights \nJust Peace Movie Nights is an event series organised by The Hague Humanity Hub in collaboration with partner organisations from The Hague’s peace and justice ecosystem. It brings themes of peace and justice to life for a broad audience\, creating space to reflect on important issues together through storytelling and cinema. \nAbout the organisers \nThe Hague Humanity Hub is a not for profit foundation based in The Hague\, the international city of peace and justice and home to hundreds of organisations working towards a better word.

SUMMARY:Who Pays the Price? Regional perspectives
DESCRIPTION:This event is part 2 of a 3-part Studium Generale program series organised between Leiden University and the Humanity Hub. On three Wednesday evenings we bring together academics and practitioners\, and delve into the world of critical raw materials. \nWhat are the global effects of the extraction of critical raw materials on regions world wide? \nIn this second session in the series on critical raw materials\, we look at how the run on critical raw materials affects regional and local communities. Together with Jeleel Balyaminu\, MSc and Dr. Soledad Valdivia Rivera we draw parallels between Latin-America and Africa. We explore what the global demand for critical raw materials means for communities and how it creates new geopolitical power structures. What is the role China plays? And how do we look at possible human right violations involved. \nJeleel Balyaminu is currently doing a PhD at the African Studies Centre Leiden. His research is on Natural Resource Governance and Socio-Cultural Conditions in Africa: From Policy to Practice. \nSoledad Valivia Rivera is Assistant Professor at the Institute for History at the Department of Latin America Studies. She focusses among others on the state and social movement relations in Bolivia. \nAfterwards there is time for drinks and a networking reception. \nMore speakers will be announced soon. \n🗓 Wednesday 11 November\n🕠17:30 – 19:00\n📍The Humanity Hub\, Fluwelen Burgwal 58\, Den Haag \nAttendence is free\, but please sign-up in advance. \n	Register  This link opens in a new tab

SUMMARY:#DemocracyDrinks x The Hague Justice Week -The Effects of a Shifting International Order

What does the promise of peace and justice through law mean when the institutions built to protect it are under pressure? And what does that look like for someone living with the consequences\, sometimes far from the conference rooms where decisions are made? \n#DemocracyDrinks is the networking event of The Hague Justice Week\, bringing together representatives from the international ecosystem of courts\, tribunals\, organisations\, knowledge institutions\, and changemakers working every day to advance peace and justice. Join us for an evening that connects the big geopolitical picture to everyday lives\, with people who have made it their mission to defend democracy on the world stage. \nWe are excited to share that we have an incredible line up planned for you. For this edition we will be joined by: \nJudge Nicholas Guillou\, International Criminal Court\nAmbassador Hugh Adsett\, Ambassador of Canada to the Netherlands.\nCelia d’Almeida\, NIMD Mali Country Director\, Feminist and Human Rights Defender.\nThe event will be moderated by NIMD Executive Director Tijmen Rooseboom. \nAfter hearing from our speakers\, we hope you will stay for drinks\, good conversation\, and lasting connections. \n📅 19 November\, 2026 \n📍 Amare\, Spinoza Foyer (1st floor)\, The Hague \nProgramme: \n16:45 — Doors open \n17:15 — Welcome and introduction \n17:20 — Facilitated conversation \n18:00 — Open discussion \n18:30 — Informal networking \n19:30 — Close \nWe are proud to be part of The Hague Justice Week 2026\, taking place from 16-20 November under the theme “80 Years and Beyond: Renewing the Promise of Peace and Justice through Law.” \nSecure your spot for #DemocracyDrinks\, the networking event of this year’s Hague Justice Week!. \nWhat are the #DemocracyDrinks? \n#DemocracyDrinks is an informal\, recurring conversation and networking series bringing together people working on democracy\, peace\, justice\, and democratic participation. \nThe format is intentionally simple: open\, dialogue-led conversations in a relaxed setting. #DemocracyDrinks The Hague provides space to connect across sectors\, test ideas\, explore emerging questions\, and reflect collectively on democratic challenges beyond formal panels or presentations. \nLaunched by Defend Democracy in Brussels in 2018\, #DemocracyDrinks now takes place in cities around the world.

SUMMARY:Sustain your Energy. Sustain your Impact. Part I
DESCRIPTION:Part 1 – Sustaining yourself. How do we stay engaged in work that matters without continuously drawing from our own reserves?\nWorking for positive change can be deeply meaningful. It can also be demanding. Complex problems\, slow progress\, competing priorities and the gap between what we care about and what we can actually influence can take their toll over time. \nIn this interactive two-hour workshop\, we start with ourselves: What sustains our energy – and what quietly drains it? \nThrough short inputs\, reflection\, practical exercises and exchange with others\, we’ll explore how our energy is shaped not only by workload\, but also by uncertainty\, emotional demands\, values\, boundaries and our sense of agency. \nWhat you’ll take away \nYou’ll leave with: \n\na clearer picture of what sustains and drains your energy;\ngreater awareness of your own patterns\, boundaries and sources of resilience;\npractical ways to work with your energy more intentionally;\none or two practices or experiments to take into your everyday life and work.\n\nWho is this for? \nFor people working towards positive change – including peace and justice\, climate and sustainability\, humanitarian action\, international cooperation and social impact. \nYou don’t need to be exhausted or close to burnout to join. This workshop is as much about prevention and awareness as responding to existing strain. \nPart of a two-workshop series \nThis is Part 1 of Sustain your Energy. Sustain your Impact. Each workshop can be attended independently\, but we recommend joining both for the full journey. \nPart 2 – Sustaining ourselves within systems widens the lens from our individual experience to the teams\, organisations and wider systems we work within. \nOffered in collaboration with The Hague Humanity Hub and Stroomversnellers\, with support from Stichting DOEN. \n  \nPrivacy Policy\nThe Humanity Hub collects your name\, email\, and organization (if you have one) when you sign up for events\, so they can manage the event and tell you about future ones.

SUMMARY:Share this event  Sustain your Energy. Sustain your Impact. Part II
DESCRIPTION:Part 2 – Sustaining ourselves within systems. What changes when we stop looking only at ourselves and widen the lens?\nWe don’t work in isolation. Our energy\, motivation and ability to contribute are shaped by the teams\, organisations and wider systems we are part of. \nIn this interactive two-hour workshop\, we explore the conditions that help people stay engaged and effective – and those that make meaningful work unnecessarily difficult or draining. \nThrough short inputs\, reflection\, practical exercises and exchange with others\, we’ll look at themes such as team culture\, psychological safety\, workload and expectations\, belonging\, organisational support and influence. We’ll explore what we can change ourselves\, what we might influence together\, and what requires change at a more systemic level. \nWhat you’ll take away \nYou’ll leave with: \n\na better understanding of how your environment affects energy\, motivation and impact;\ninsight into conditions that support or undermine sustainable engagement;\na clearer view of where responsibility and influence sit;\nideas for changes and conversations you can take into your own context.\n\nWho is this for? \nFor people working towards positive change – including peace and justice\, climate and sustainability\, humanitarian action\, international cooperation and social impact. \nCome if you’re curious not only about how you can sustain your engagement\, but also how we can create environments that make sustained engagement more possible. \nPart of a two-workshop series \nThis is Part 2 of Sustain your Energy. Sustain your Impact. It can be attended as a standalone workshop – you do not need to have attended Part 1. \nFor the full journey\, we recommend joining both workshops. \nPart 1 – Sustaining yourself focuses on your own energy\, patterns\, boundaries and agency before Part 2 widens the perspective to our shared environments and systems. \nOffered in collaboration with The Hague Humanity Hub and Stroomversnellers\, with support from Stichting DOEN. \nPrivacy Policy\nThe Humanity Hub collects your name\, email\, and organization (if you have one) when you sign up for events\, so they can manage the event and tell you about future ones.
