Maritime Boundary Delimitation

Professional Training Workshop, 26-28 September 2012
Centre for International Law, National University of Singapore

Clearly defined maritime boundaries are essential for good international relations and effective ocean management, yet few coastal states have agreed all their maritime boundaries with their neighbours. Part of the reason for this is that boundary delimitation requires a range of specialist legal and technical skills which are not always readily available to governments.

Combining lectures, discussions and practical exercises, IBRU's most popular workshop helps participants develop the skills needed to achieve an equitable division of maritime space and clearly defined maritime boundaries.

IBRU is delighted to be partnering with the Centre for International Law at the National University of Singapore in hosting this workshop.
