could be considered whether and how to pursue further the development of the topic
or parts of it within the ILC or other fora. It is hoped that the presentation of a
comprehensive study on “Sea-Level Rise in relation to International Law” can take
place at the end of the current quinquennium (2017–2021) of the ILC or, most likely,
during the course of the next one (2022–2026).
