This session is organized by the Center for Security Studies, ETH Zurich; UN Institute for Disarmament Research.
The principle and practice of neutrality in international relations have expanded possibilities for protection but also for managing risks of escalation in the face of geopolitical tension. These contributions and the long history of neutral actors’ engagement in humanitarian action and peacebuilding point to the merits of exploring how these values of neutrality can be extended to cyberspace – stability and security of which have become fundamental to economic prosperity, and social and political participation.
