Case Studies introduction52 The first case study concerns the genocide committed by Bosnian Serb forces in the summer of 1995, involving the killing of thousands of Bosnian men who had gathered at the Eastern Bosnian enclave of Srebrenica.53 Though the enclave had been designated a ‘safe area’ by the UNSC, acting under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, UNPROFOR’s Dutch battalion (‘DUTCHBAT’) proved unable to protect it. In 2007, in Mothers of Srebrenica, survivors of the genocide sued the UN and the State of the Netherlands before the Dutch courts, holding them partly responsible for the fall of the enclave and the ensuing genocide. The Dutch courts held that the UN enjoyed immunity from jurisdiction. Before the ECtHR, the claimants argued that the Netherlands had breached Article 6(1) of the ECHR on account of its courts having upheld the UN’s immunity. In 2013, the ECtHR declared the application inadmissible. In its contemporary case law concerning the jurisdictional immunity of international organisations, the ECtHR has consistently found that Article 6(1) of the ECHR has not been breached. Mothers of Srebrenica, however, is the only case before the Court in which alternative remedies were not available to the claimants. The ECtHR left unresolved in that case whether it deemed the UN to have breached Section 29 of the General Convention. In the immunity proceedings in Mothers of Srebrenica, the Dutch Supreme Court had found that the lack of alternative remedies was at odds with Section 29(a) of the General Convention. By implication, therefore, according to the Supreme Court, the dispute had a ‘private law character’ in terms of that provision. The second case study concerns allegations of lead poisoning due to soil contamination in camps for internally displaced persons in Kosovo. These camps, set up since 1999, were administered by UNMIK, the UN’s mission in Kosovo, which was responsible for the interim administration of Kosovo under a UNSC mandate. Former residents of the camps alleged that UNMIK had violated their human rights, including their right to life. In 2006, in N.M. and Others, the complainants submitted claims under, what the UNMIK administrative framework referred to as, the ‘UN Third Party Claims Process’, which involved the settlement of third-party claims by a claims commission. In 2011, apparently without such a commission having been established, the UN Legal Counsel declared the claims ‘non-receivable’ for lack of a private law character. The compl...

Case Studies. After conclusion of literature review for this project, we determined that the Integrated Transport and Health Impact Tool (ITHIM) is the most appropriate tool for conducting health impact assessment in Miami-Dade county. In this chapter, we documented results from our comprehensive review of ITHIM implementation cases in the United States, including implementations in greater Nashville area in Tennessee, five major California Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO), and counties in Sacramento, California. The case studies examined details of the ITHIM implementations in terms of contexts of the applications, calibration data, assessment scenarios, health outcomes assessed, results of the assessment, and plans and actions after ITHIM implementations. Note that discussions of XXXXX case studies in this chapter cover only technical details relevant to the implementation. ITHIM methodologies are covered in the literature review chapter.
Case Studies. Three case studies will help us to understand the dynamics of state- military development in Central African countries and the differences between them. They bear on the DRC (also designated in this work as ‘Congo’),79 Cameroon and Rwanda. Those three countries have been selected as representing a good cross-section of situations to be encountered in the region as their trajectories of state formation and state-building differ substantially, as does the role of their military in relation to the political institutions. Alone among the states of francophone Central Africa, Rwanda harbours a pre-colonial history of both state formation that continued until the construction of European imperial empires of the late 19th century and of a professional military. As the parenthesis of colonial times and the early years of independence were closed by the 1994 genocide, the military has assumed a key role in Rwanda’s modern state-building, largely combining political and security functions in the hands of the same elites. At the other end of the spectrum, state-building has been a much more untidy process in the Congo, a country that had no pre-colonial history of state formation. Fifty years after independence, the DRC remains the symbol of a ‘fragile state’, kept in intensive care by the international community for that reason. It is only a period of about half of the years under the reign of President Xxxxxx that Congolese veterans describe with nostalgic dazzlement and pride as a ‘Golden Age’ of their military. Events in the East of the country since the mid-1990s have demonstrated how tenuous a process military 79 As the country has changed names several times since independence, the term ‘Congo’ will be used to refer to characteristics or developments that are not specific to a particular phase of its history. Otherwise the respective names of the period under discussion will be used (ex. DRC, Zaïre). The DRC is not to be confused with the much smaller Congo on the northern bank of the river, the Republic of Congo formation remains in the Congo. A large number of diverse military actors have in the meantime played a variety of roles from keepers of the regime to sources of outright chaos in the country. Cameroon represents yet a third kind of configuration, sharing Congo’s absence of pre-colonial state experience but, like Rwanda, boasting an uncontested ‘national army’, at least since the early 1970s. Its relative stability since independence appears to indica...
Case Studies. We identified existing cases of ITHIM applications for transportation projects and conducted in- depth analysis of the cases. Based on results of literature review, we selected three cases (i.e., greater Nashville area in Tennessee, five major California MPOs, and counties in Sacramento, California) of transportation health impacts assessment in the U.S. and examined the context of HIA applications, the assessment methods and data, and regional transportation plans and actions taken after the assessment.
