The lecture was part of the 2nd very successful International Summer Law School organized by The European Law Students' Association - ELSA Greece, which took place in Athens from 17-24 July 2016.

Participants were law students from all over the world and the academic programme contained a variety of courses outline and covered a wide spectrum of Maritime Law, Marine Insurance, Piracy and Law of the Sea. In Piraeus they visited the historical Hellas Liberty, Piraeus Naval Museum, as well as the Hellenic Management Centre, where they attended the lecture given by Dr Ntovas.
