Climate change and the onset of events linked to extreme climatic weather may prompt the next global crisis. In a post-COVID context, this emphasizes the need to properly address emerging transnational environmental challenges and, at the same time, operate speedy energy transitions. Against this backdrop, the Conference focuses on the varieties of legal responses to global environmental problems and their impact on justice. As the climate, energy, and environmental justice, we understand that it refers to the concerns regarding the redistributive, restorative, and procedural issues raised by the challenges of making a transition to a more sustainable environment and how legal systems responded to it, whether from International law, EU law, or a multilegal system perspective described as Global law.
We welcome papers that fit broadly within the theme of the conference. In particular, we invite papers that relate to one or more of the following themes:
Interested participants should submit an abstract of no more than 500 words via email to Caroline Cox and Lucila De Almeida. The deadline for submission of abstracts is 11th May 2023. All abstracts will be reviewed by the conveners, and selections will be announced by 18th May 2023. If selected, authors will be asked to present their paper (incorporating feedback) at the conference in July.
For the sake of ensuring the event will have a proportional carbon footprint, the conference will be run as a hybrid event. For those wishing to attend in person, participants will be responsible for their own accommodation and travel expenses.
