With the creation of the Montreux Document Forum (MDF) in 2014, participants established a platform for tackling their challenges in implementing the Montreux Document. On 27 and 28 April 2017, States, international organisations, and civil society representatives gathered in Geneva to participate in the Third Plenary Meeting of the MDF. The meeting sought to promote dialogue on perspectives, opportunities, and challenges relating to the regulation of the private military and security industry and the implementation of the rules and good practices of the Montreux Document on pertinent international legal obligations for states related to operations of private military and security companies during armed conflict.
