Maritime industry law conference

The 5th Annual Maritime Law and Policy Conference will take place on Friday 4 April 2014 at the university. Researchers and postgraduate students will present their ideas about how maritime law and policy should be shaped in the future.

It is organised by the London Universities Maritime Law and Policy Research Group (LUMLP), which is based at City.

Topics to be covered include the international community’s response to Somali piracy; the Maritime Labour Convention and whether the Shipping Industry should be exempt from Competition Law.

Submissions in all areas of Maritime Law and Policy, including relevant interdisciplinary work, are welcome. Each speaker has fifteen minutes to present their research ideas, followed by a ten minute discussion.
