The Center for Marine Affairs (CMA) was established in 1970, under a grant from the Ford Foundation. Located at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, the Center worked to establish a collaborative research program to investigate international political, social, and economic issues of importance to oceanography, with a specific focus on marine resources and regional development in Baja California.
