2019 Training Programme:
Background Reading
In preparation for the training programme, participants
are strongly encouraged to familiarise themselves with relevant
background material prior to the start of the course. You will
find
some suggestions below, and the list may be added to or modified closer
to the start of the course. Obviously you are not expected to study all
the websites and documents in detail, but the more material you are
familiar with, the better prepared you will be for the lectures.
One key resource is IOI-Canada's recently published volume of
essays: THE
FUTURE OF OCEAN GOVERNANCE AND CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT - ESSAYS IN HONOUR
OF ELISABETH MANN BORGESE
(1918-2002). Commemorating the
100th anniversary of EMB's birth, this publication
features
contributions from over 80 specialists and practitioners
in the field of ocean governance. It is based on themes and issues
covered in IOI-Canada's interdisciplinary training
programme. For publication information and to download essays
via open access, go to the
Brill web page for the book.
The COURSE
READER
is also useful for reference purposes, providing a source of key
international legal instruments. It contains over 800 pages of texts
divided into three main subject areas: 1) General Law of the Sea and
Fisheries; 2) Climate Change; and 3) Maritime Safety &
Security, and Marine Pollution. Participants can download the electronic version,
and a hard copy is also available during the course, upon request. Note
that readings and resources will also be provided by individual
speakers during the programme, reflecting the issues and subject matter
in their own lecture.
