The study investigates how the most
fundamental universal human rights – the right to life, liberty and health can
also be granted to people at sea, and what states and other actors must do to
achieve this goal. The project will run
for four years and will bring together academics and practitioners working at
the interface of the law of the sea and human rights. At the time of
application, the network comprised 73 people from 38 different countries
working for universities, international organisations, public authorities and
NGOs.
“While the oceans are attracting growing attention,
people at sea still receive little consideration by stakeholders, scholars and
the public at large. The
frequent violations of their most basic human rights, which safeguard their
life, liberty and health, often go unseen and unpunished,” the backers of the
project in introducing the study, warning that death, slavery, unlawful arrest and other human rights violations result in
the practical negation of the universality of human rights – the idea that all
persons are equally entitled to human rights – advocated by the European Union
and the United Nations.
The action aims to assess, from a
legal perspective, how human rights can be enjoyed also by people at sea and by
all people at sea.
It will answer two fundamental questions: What is
the content and scope of the rights to life, liberty and health when applied at
sea and who is responsible for protecting them and how?
