The Module is divided into 4 parts – Part 1 (the PSSA), Part 2 (Human Rights), Part 3 (International Humanitarian Law) and Part 4 (Complementarity of IHL and Human Rights). After each part, the learner takes a quiz designed to evaluate their understanding of the content before moving on to the next part.
