Srimahi’s paper, titled “Maritime Security and Regulatory Framework on Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing: The Real Solution,” explores one of the most pressing global maritime challenges. Her work analyses international legal mechanisms, regulatory gaps, and the need for stronger cooperation between coastal nations to prevent IUU fishing.
