Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research


[History of ocean development]

[United Nations Developments]
In 1961, the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) was established within UNESCO, a UN organization, with the aim of further increasing knowledge of the oceans and their resources through cooperation among countries. The Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) has been assisting the IOC since its establishment as an advisory body in the field of science, and in 1972 the Engineering Committee on Oceanic Resources (ECOR) was established as an advisory body in the field of engineering. In 1967, Arvid Pardo, the Maltese ambassador to the UN, spoke at the UN in deploring the monopoly of resource development by a few developed countries, referring to manganese nodules on the seafloor, which were beginning to attract attention at the time, and said, "The deep seafloor and its resources should be considered the common heritage of all mankind." In 1970, this idea was adopted as a UN resolution.
