Illegal Unreported & Unregulated (IUU) fishing takes place where vessels operate in violation of the laws which apply either to areas under the jurisdiction of a coastal state or to high seas regulated by regional organisations. The IAMSP has finished working on a whitepaper regarding the worldwide activities of IUU fishing to present to the applicable port states and responsible parties / authorities.

IUU Fishing

Due to the growing threats to critical infrastructure in the Oil and Gas industry stemming from international terrorism and piracy, both companies and governments have an increased concern for the safety of energy infrastructure.

The IAMSP is working closely with both corporate and government entities on this domain, investigating how best to standardise the security practices for the industry.

Oil & Gas Security

Effective measures against piracy are vital in the efforts to secure global international supply chains and broader maritime operations in the critical infrastructure arena. The IAMSP has introduced recommended standards for its members that work in this domain, such as Rules on the Use of Force (RuF’s), minimum manning standards, and continuation of education in the maritime security domain.

Anti-Piracy

IAMSP’s mission is to build capacity within the maritime security domain. This improves the industry’s ability to protect its personnel, infrastructure, and operations in a manner that preserves the value of the sector, the rights of its participants, and the environment in which operations take place.

To accomplish this mission, the Association is focused on the fulfilment of the following objectives:

To develop the appropriate sound security standards, guidelines and practices;
To promote and advocate professional conduct in all aspects of the maritime security domain;
To soundly advise internal and external organizations with respect to maritime security issues;
To develop (or assist in the development of) sound education, training and professional advancement material; and
To provide a community of trusted professionals that can work collaboratively to address challenges within the maritime security domain.

Oceans’ Governance

Governance implies that nations and those “on the water” conduct themselves and manage their resources with two things in mind: the rule of law and the realization of human rights. This naturally aligns the Ocean’s Governance activities closely with other topics, such as Human Rights and Regions in Conflict. The Association approaches this challenge from the perspective of maintaining an effective rule of law while balancing human rights and civil responsibilities.

Technology and Innovation

Technological change in the maritime sector has accelerated over the past few years. Paradigm shifts have occurred. The Association looks at three critical questions within this group. Does the technology promote safer and more secure operations both on shore and at sea? Have the processes and practices used to conceptualize, design, implement, manage, and retire the technology been well crafted and established? Does the application of the technology take into account both the intended use but also look to prevent the unintentional use or misuse of the equipment that could threaten maritime safety, security, or vulnerable populations?

Climate Change and Related

Our understanding of the world’s oceans and coastal environments continues to challenge maritime sector participants. The Association’s approach to this challenge has two parts. The first involves casting a broad net with respect to the different approaches to this topic. These may include highly-scientific, data-driven approaches or those that are derived from traditional, or even more ancient, approaches. What is important here is that there is an alternative brought forward to be considered. The second involves looking at the basis of the concept. Upon what foundation does the approach base itself? What evidence can be brought to bear? What limitations apply?

Best Practices

This page is intended to provide a repository of links to guidance that has been accepted as Best Management Practices (BMP) within the maritime security industry. To be included on this page, the practice must undergo a critical review, be made available to the public at no cost, and address a specific issue.

The Association does not endorse the blind application of best practices. Before applying them, organizations should consider their operations, risks, and organizational culture to determine if adjustments may be warranted or needed.

Oceans in Conflict

The world has seen an expansion of conflicts in the maritime domain. In some areas, commercial shipping is under direct threat from both the sea and shore, prompting military responses. In other areas, commercial shipping faces other forms of challenges as nations attempt to position themselves to control key routes or bodies of water. Addressing these challenges requires more than mere suppression, but attacking the root causes of the issues.
