The GMC Committee, made up of University of Greenwich staff, manages the day-to-day running of the centre.
GMC Committee
Between them, the Committee members have expertise in a range of maritime issues, from naval and environmental history, to current issues in conservation and coastal development.
The Committee also spans from Early Career Researchers through to individuals who have worked on maritime issues for decades. This diversity ensures that the GMC is current and inclusive and at the same time built upon extensive knowledge and experience.
