Centre for Climate Law and Governance

Description

The Centre for Climate Law and Governance is a leading light for interdisciplinary research about legal and governance approaches to climate change and sustainability within and across countries in the Global North and South, taking into account the specificities of particular sectors and local contexts. The Centre investigates and evaluates legal and regulatory design, decision-making, challenges, and innovation; and how, where and with whom these occur in national, transnational and global contexts.

Embracing interdisciplinarity and using a variety of conceptual, theoretical and methodological approaches, the Centre investigates existing and emerging sites of law and governance under four broad research themes: sustainable finance and business; climate litigation and adjudication; transnational energy transitions; environmental justice.
