Скачать или смотреть ISA: Governing Common Heritage of Humankind, Protect Marine Environment & Regulating Deep-Sea Mining

Established under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) in 1994, the International Seabed Authority (ISA) is the organization through which States Parties to UNCLOS organize and control all mineral-resources-related activities in the Area for the benefit of humankind as a whole. In so doing, the ISA has the mandate to ensure the effective protection of the marine environment from harmful effects that may arise from deep-seabed-related activities.

At a time when increased demand for critical raw materials is shaping discussions and geopolitical interests, the mandate of the ISA is ever more important to protect and manage the resources of the deep seabed and to defend the legal principle and the moral responsibility to manage these resources, not for the few but for the benefit of current and future generations.

This event, organized within the framework of the Geneva Dialogues on Minerals and Metals, will take stock of the outcomes of the 30th Session of the ISA, concluded in July 2025 and provide information, perspectives and expectations on the first part of the 31st Session, to be held from 9 to 20 March 2026 in Kingston, Jamaica.
