This free webinar-based course will challenge participants from around the world to explore key issues in three core areas of ocean governance — Law of the Sea, State of the Ocean, and Fisheries, Aquaculture and Food Security — through a combination of lectures, discussions, videos and readings. Aimed primarily at marine professionals with responsibility for some aspect of coastal and ocean management, the course is offered for both live participation (limited availability due to capped class size) and self-paced study, both with a time commitment of c.24 hours plus required preparation. A certificate will be available for those who complete all the course requirements.
