Abstract
This report provides an overview of the policy developments in the past year relating to Antarctica. It only focuses on some issues discussed at the thirty-ninth meeting of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) held online on 27–30 October: impacts of climate change on the conservation of Antarctic marine living resources; illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing in the Convention Area; and implementation of objectives of the Convention. Other issues discussed at the CCAMLR meeting include the management of marine resources with the advice from the Scientific Committee, and the review and adoption of new conservation measures, among others (all reports and documents relating to CCAMLR meetings can be found at <https://www.ccamlr.org/en/meetings/26>). The forty-third Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting and the twenty-third Committee for Environmental Protection meeting were cancelled due to the pandemic.
