CIL was proud to once again partner with the International Boundaries Research Unit (IBRU) of Durham University to organise the second Maritime Boundary Delimitation Workshop in Southeast Asia. The Workshop was held on 26-28 September 2012 in Singapore.

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

Clearly-defined maritime boundaries are essential for good international relations and effective ocean management, yet few coastal states have agreed to all of 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.
