Mentorship contribution by Prof. Kamrul Hossain at the Early-Career Scholars Seminar on Ocean Law!

On October 18, 2023, the Centre for Law on Climate Change and Sustainability (CLoCCS), Reykjavik University, organized the second edition of the” Early-Career Scholars & Ocean Law seminar”. I was honored to be invited to the seminar to offer my mentorship role through commenting and providing feedback on academic presentations given by five promising scholars who work on their Doctoral research in the Nordic Universities, including Reykjavik University, the UiT Arctic University of Norway and the University of Copenhagen. While the presentation attracted a diversity of topics, they were, however, interconnected. The presentation primarily focused on linkages among climate change, marine biodiversity, including areas beyond national jurisdiction and the law of the sea. Overall, the presentations highlighted the link between climate change and ocean governance. Medy Dervovic, a Ph.D. Candidate at Reykjavík University of the Department of Law moderated the event.
