The South China Sea: An International Law Perspective

In recent years the South China Sea has been at the forefront of the international agenda. As a regional maritime area of global strategic and economic importance, events in the South China Sea resonate far beyond the littoral States. With a view to exploring the core legal issues troubling these waters, the Centre for International Law, Department of International and European Law of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel has the pleasure of inviting you to this one-day conference.

Showcasing panels of renowned law of the sea experts, the conference will offer presentations and Q&A sessions centered on the themes of fisheries, navigation, islands and international dispute settlement.

You can find more information about the venue on the website of the Egmont Palace Conference Center.
