Maritime Studies Comprehensive Project: Bridging Atlantic
This project aims to address the evolving challenges and opportunities in the maritime domain while promoting cooperation among Atlantic nations. Leveraging a multidimensional approach encompassing policy frameworks, technological advancements, and diplomatic collaboration, this research is focused on researching sustainable solutions to maritime security threats and enhancing transatlantic partnerships. The project offers an in-depth analysis of the current state of maritime security in the Atlantic region, considering diverse factors such as piracy, illegal fishing, maritime terrorism, and illicit trafficking.
This comprehensive assessment will serve as a foundation for developing effective strategies and policies to counter emerging threats and safeguard the shared interests of Atlantic nations. Emphasizing the significance of international cooperation, the project will develop collaborative efforts regarding research and analysis and cross knowledge diffusion among governments, maritime agencies, and relevant stakeholders, looking for the diplomatic macro and micro level, as well as political subsidiarity. Additionally, the project will be based on fostering dialogue and forums, promoting engagements that encourage trust-building and facilitate the exchange of best practices. Another vital aspect of the project is the focus on capacity building and knowledge sharing. Training programs, workshops, and academic exchanges will be organised to enhance the skills and expertise of maritime security experts. Different research initiatives and publications will contribute to a deeper understanding of maritime security dynamics, encouraging evidence-based policymaking and fostering innovation.
This project begun on 01 July 2023 and will finish on 01 July 2028.
