MAJOR MARITIME ISSUES AND STRATEGIES
IS AIMED AT HIGH-LEVEL MANAGERS WISHING TO ENHANCE THEIR SKILLS IN MARITIME ISSUES AND STRATEGIES.
CHALLENGES
The maritimeisation of the world has a direct impact on human activity. Maritime routes are the lifeblood of the global economy, and protecting them is a major strategic challenge. Seas and oceans are also areas of confrontation between nations and areas of expansion for crime. Reservoirs of wealth that arouse covetousness, maritime spaces are impacted by climate change and are subject to predation, which means that resources and biodiversity need to be protected. France has the 2nd largest Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), including 97% off our overseas territories. Thinking about maritime issues therefore means thinking about the specific issues of these territories for national defence and security.
OBJECTIVES
The 'Maritime Issues and Strategies' major is a top-quality course featuring some of the best practitioners and experts in their field. Students will be able to :
- deepen their knowledge of maritime areas and activities through a better understanding of the issues involved;
- understand the complexity of maritime and overseas issues in their interministerial and intersectoral dimensions;
- Acquire expertise in a wide range of defence and security issues: specific features of our various overseas EEZs, oceanography, fish and mineral resources, defence against interference by other powers in our EEZs, climate impacts, etc. ;
- understand the issues relating to our overseas territories, particularly in terms of national security;
- develop their skills in strategic thinking and foresight and share their expertise in collective thinking.
Course duration 35 days
The programme for this major allows students living overseas to follow the entire course either face-to-face or by distance learning.
The "Overseas" programme of the "Maritime issues and strategies" major brings auditors from French overseas territories together with auditors from mainland France at the back-to-school seminar and on four major assignments in the programme (approximately 30 days of classroom sessions).
These missions are supplemented by seminars tailored to the needs of overseas auditors in major French ports (Brest, Toulon, Marseille, Dunkirk/Boulogne) to enable them to make visits that cannot be shared by video.
In addition to these periods of presence in mainland France, conference debates and committee meetings are followed by listeners in the French overseas territories via live streaming or recorded programmes.
