About Us

Restore the Norm is a collective of legal professionals supporting efforts to end the impunity gap for the use of chemical weapons.  We seek to apply our extensive background in international humanitarian law and international criminal law to identify and pursue solutions for accountability for violations of the international prohibition against the use of chemical weapons.  To this end, we are supporting the initiative to establish an exceptional chemical weapons tribunal (see www.cwtribunal.org).
