David Hammond (Human Rights at Sea) and Professor Steven Haines (University of Greenwich) join the podcast to discuss the protection of human rights at sea. This is Part 1 of a 2-part interview, where we address some of the laws protecting the victims of human rights abuses at sea, barriers to enforcing these laws, the Geneva Declaration on Human Rights at Sea, advocacy issues, as well as the differences between Human Rights Law and International Humanitarian Law.
