Abstract
EN Pacific Island nations, facing an existential threat to their statehood and maritime sovereignty due to environmental change-induced sea level rise, are taking innovative legal action. This chapter examines their strategic use of international legal mechanisms, focusing on the deposition of maritime boundaries with the United Nations under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. It underscores the unique challenges island nations face and their potential to influence global legal developments concerning environmental change and state sovereignty.
