Humanitarian Protection
Humanitarian protection is the act of promoting and ensuring the legal rights of people affected by humanitarian crises. The concept of humanitarian protection was established by the 1949 Geneva Conventions and responsibility to ensure protection was mandated to the International Committee of the Red Cross. Outside of times of crises, national governments tend to have responsibility to ensure that people's rights are protected, but during humanitarian emergencies aid agencies often perform the task. Humanitarian protection by non-governmental agencies is coordinated by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. There is a growing unmet need for humanitarian protection, exacerbated by a major gap in donor-funding of humanitarian protection activities. History and definition In the aftermath of the Second World War, the 1949 Geneva Conventions made clear that warring parties must protect civilians from harm, although the conventions did not explicitly define ''protecti ...

In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes.
