NIPPON FOUNDATION FELLOWSHIP
United Nations - Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea - Nippon Foundation Fellowship
The Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea (DOALOS) of the Office of Legal Affairs (OLA) has been providing an ongoing programme of assistance to States and intergovernmental organizations in the field of oceans and the law of the sea since the adoption of the United Nations Convention of the Law of the Sea in 1982.
The United Nations – Nippon Foundation Capacity building Programmes include a series of fellowships and training activities, as well as a vibrant Alumni Network. In partnership with, and funded by the Nippon Foundation, these programmes are implemented by the Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea, Office of Legal Affairs of the United Nations, in collaboration with the Nippon Foundation and host institutions.
Athens PIL participates in the UNNF Fellowship Programme, generously providing its resources to host Fellows and provide a co-supervisor for Fellows’ research projects.
The United Nations – Nippon Foundation Fellowship provides Government officials and other mid-level professionals from developing States with advanced training on ocean affairs and the law of the sea, as well as related disciplines, including marine science in support of management frameworks. Fellows will learn about international legal frameworks, key issues and best practices in ocean affairs, become familiar with the work of the United Nations, and develop professional skills. Fellows will also conduct individual research, under academic supervision, and develop a written thesis on a topic selected by them.
Upon completion of the Fellowship, Fellows are expected to return to their home countries and use their in-depth knowledge and extended experience to assist in formulating comprehensive ocean policy and in implementing the legal regime set out in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and related instruments, including through designing, implementing and/or evaluating specific improvement projects.
