This is the final trilingual International Colloquium of the European Human Sea research programme from 15 to 17 October 2018. It is part of the fifth research theme (Work package): Towards the new law of the oceans? - Define common concepts to regulate human activities at sea.

This programme started on 1 March 2014 for a period of 5 years, is funded by an ERC Advanced Grant, (ERC-2013-AdG 340770), the development of human activities at sea-what legal framework?  "For a new maritime Law ", acronym "Human Sea".

Human Sea intends to address issues linked to the development of human activities at sea, which have progressively led to a transformation of the Law of the Sea and maritime Law. Nowadays, these new activities remain poorly regulated. The objective of this programme, coordinated by Professor Patrick Chaumette, former director of the Maritime and Oceanic Law Centre (France), focuses on rebuilding the concepts born from the History of maritime activities and of navigation. It brings up questions about State intervention at sea, in its territorial sea or on the high seas. The compromises found in 1982, now embedded in the Montego Bay Convention, will also be questioned in the light of the development of new threats and techniques.
