This article addresses the debate on protecting civilians and the responsibilities of states and international organizations in its implementation. The objective is to analyze, within the context of recently erupted conflicts (Ukraine and the Gaza Strip), whether the concepts of responsibility to protect and responsibility while protecting are still effective, and how states and international organizations have been assimilating and putting them into practice. The work argues that despite in-depth studies on these concepts, the international structure and issues of sovereignty directly impact the construction of efficient responses to humanitarian crises, which is reflected in human suffering.
