Professor Sterio Publishes Blog Post on Child Soldiers

Professor Milena Sterio published a blog post about the recent conviction of Dominic Ongwen, former leader in the Lord’s Resistance Army (Uganda), by the International Criminal Court. The post, part of an online symposium hosted by the blog “Armed Groups and International Law,” focuses on the issue of mitigation of punishment, as Ongwen was a child soldier. Ongwen’s sentencing hearing is taking place this week at the ICC.  Professor Sterio’s post is titled, “Precedent on the Prosecution of Juvenile Offenders for International Crimes.”
