Side event at Arctic Frontiers 2020: Enforcement Beyond National Jurisdiction

Areas beyond national jurisdiction were until recently neither much exploited nor regulated. This is now changing.

Which enforcement possibilities are there, which are needed and how does the enforcement possibilities limit the regulatory ambitions?
