This advanced academic course delves into policy perspectives on labour exploitation in global fisheries, emphasizing governance, rights, and solutions. Through interdisciplinary analysis of theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence, students explore the complexities of labour exploitation and its impacts on human rights and the environment. The course comprises three parts: theoretical foundations of fisheries governance and policy formation, empirical analysis of human rights abuses and environmental degradation in fisheries, and comparative studies of labour exploitation in regional contexts. By critically evaluating existing policies and proposing innovative solutions, students develop skills in policy analysis that could contribute to ongoing efforts to promote ethical labour practices and sustainability in the fishing industry. Through seminars, case studies, and research projects, students gain a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities in addressing labour exploitation in global fisheries, preparing them for academic research and policy engagement in this critical field.
