Supporting Entity to the HRAS initiative
Human Rights at Sea (HRAS) is delighted to welcome the London Shipping Law Centre (LSLC) as a Supporting Entity to the HRAS initiative to assist in the development of the HRAS platform, its international profile and its work within the shipping industry.
Dr Aleka Sheppard (LLB, LLM, Ph.D, Dip. I.A.CIArb) Founder and Chairman LSLC said in response to joining the Human Rights at Sea initiative: “The LSLC is proud to support this commendable initiative by David Hammond in pioneering awareness of human rights at sea across the maritime sector.“
HRAS Founder, David Hammond, said: “I have been working closely alongside LSLC and having spoken with Dr. Sheppard at length about the aim and vision of the HRAS platform, we found that our mutual concerns about the current lack of explicit awareness of human rights in the maritime sector were mirrored. I am therefore delighted to have the support of the London Shipping Law Centre and I look forward to working alongside them in 2015.“
