TRAFFICKING
anniversary of the opening for signature of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, delegates of the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea overwhelmingly responded to the request from the Legal Counsel of the United Nations to send their personal recollections and reflections to be set out in a publication. The result is a personal tribute to the negotiations which took place in the last century and which led to the adoption of the Convention. It is a reflection of the spirit of consensus at the Third United Nations Conference and of the importance the Convention still has thirty years later as the legal framework for all matters related to the oceans and seas.

Measuring Vu l n e r a b i l i t y to Natural Hazards
Ján Kubiš, Special Representative and Head of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan
This publication provides an insight into how risk management standards and guidelines can be applied not just to enhance the management of risk within a single entity, but also to provide an effective way of ensuring the efficiency of regulatory systems for all stakeholders. It calls for a broader application of international risk management related standards by regulators and business companies globally as a way of facilitating trade and commerce”. Kevin W Knight AM, Chairman, ISO Technical Committee 262 - Risk Management.
This publication explains complicated theoretical concepts of risk management in an easy to understand manner and presents a methodology of how these concepts can be applied to building regulatory systems. It is well-structured and full of examples. Our students will certainly find it valuable reading as will all those who are interested in practical risk management”.

Towards a better management of risks
“The main purpose of the UN is to enable its member States to better shield their peoples from natural and man-made hazards. This publication addresses the need for a structured and inclusive decision-making process to manage risks and to achieve the desired level of safety without stifling economic growth. It will help the UN and its member States to apply risk management as a central process underlying all regulatory activity, involving all stakeholders at the highest level of policy-making. As such, it is intended to assist policymakers, regulators, and businesses in building regulatory systems aimed at effectively mastering the risks that confront our families, our communities and our planet."
