Maritime Affairs Program

Released the last Tuesday of every month, Maritime Affairs Program (MAP) Handbills are a regular newsletter that highlights the major news stories, research products, analyses, and events occurring in or with regard to the global maritime domain during the past month.

Each issue also includes a Spotlight: a short-form written background and analysis of a specific issue related to maritime affairs, which changes with each issue. The goal of the Spotlight is to help our readers quickly and accurately understand the basic background of a vital topic in maritime affairs and how that topic relates to ongoing developments today.
