A new EU Cost Action that focuses on human rights and the sea, Blue Rights, started its activities on 31 October. 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? Henrik Ringbom is a member of the Management Committee of the Action and also a co-leader of one of the sub-working groups. The first inaugural meeting of Blue Rights took place in Brussels on 31 October 2024.
