The International Environmental Policy program at the Monterey Institute of International Studies of Middlebury College has recently established a new center, the Center for the Blue Economy. As part of the Center's inaugural activities, and in recognition of the 30th anniversary of the signing of the Law of the Sea Convention, we plan to hold a two-day conference on international fisheries law, policy and economics on April 12-13, 2012, which I will be coordinating. We are currently seeking panel proposals for the conference and hope that some of you will be interested in participating. Please send proposals to my attention by May 5, 2012; we hope to make decisions by the early summer. Monterey, California is a glorious place in the spring, and we hope to organize a number of side trips associated with the conference to show off the region. Additional details on the conference will follow soon for potential attendees.
