In its preceding issue, International Review had announced, after publishing the text of two letters in which the ICRC drew the attention of National Societies to the importance of an ever-wider diffusion of the Geneva Conventions, that a further letter would be printed relative to University courses on international humanitarian law. This runs as follows:In its circular sent in January 1971, the International Committee of the Red Cross had the honour to inform you, in a provisional account, of the action undertaken by some thirty National Societies in the important realm of the dissemination of knowledge on the Geneva Conventions, consistent with resolution IX adopted by the XXIst International Conference of the Red Cross at Istanbul.
