Instead of a structure based upon command and control,
the Cooperation for Global Maritime Security is a
self-organizing entity based on the coordinated and
cooperative support of its participants. To provide
initial coordination a non-partisan group will
facilitate the early efforts of the Cooperation by
providing a venue for dialog and discussion, as well as
a problem-solving forum. This international group is
comprised of researchers and analysts, expert in the
field of maritime security and related issues. The
group will assist participants in identifying common
issues and aid in the development of international
solutions that reach across regional boundaries.
Additionally, the coordinating group will work with the
Cooperation to inform private industry and government
leadership of emerging challenges within the maritime
domain.
As an informal alignment, any nation, organization or
individual may join the Cooperation for Global Maritime
Security. Participants are encouraged to contribute,
but passive participation is welcomed.
