Description
The Center for Environmental and Energy las within the Faculty of Law and Criminology combines scientific research between Environmental Law, comprise of environmental law and spatial planning law, and Energy Law. Our research includes fundamental (PhD) and applied (policy oriented) legal and policy research, and multidisciplinary research. It covers different layers of law (international, European and national/regional, with a comparative law approach) as well as the various sectors of environmental law and energy law (climate, energy, biodiversity, pollution, land-use, animals, etc.). Through its research and the organization of workshops, conferences and symposia the CMER aims to be a driving force for sustainable development and the transition towards a carbon neutral economy.
