Nov 2017 – The symposium aimed to discuss whether and to what extent emerging concepts in global environmental law can help shed new light on the evolution and challenges of environmental law across different levels and sectors. It considered the need for a future research agenda for environmental law scholarship, and the form those directions might take, including theoretical and methodological agendas.
