SUMMARY:[Short course] Climate litigation and regulation - International and European perspectives
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a training on climate litigation and regulation – one of the fastest-moving areas of the legal landscape today. This two-day course gives you a practical\, up-to-date understanding of that landscape – from international foundations to European regulation – so you can navigate it with confidence. \nIn recent years\, courts at every level – from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) to national judiciaries – have fundamentally reshaped the legal obligations of governments and businesses on climate change. Civil society is also leveraging the law in many creative ways to hold public and private actors accountable. \nClimate litigation cases are growing both in number and success rate. Therefore\, understanding the content and application of international and regional climate law is becoming essential across sectors and roles. \nIn collaboration with SEVEN — the University of Amsterdam’s interdisciplinary climate institute\, we offer a short course providing a broad understanding of key areas in international and European climate law. \nDuring this course\, you will benefit from: \n\nAn informed understanding of international and European climate law\, including the latest developments of climate treaties and agreements.\nOverview of recent\, key climate litigation cases against states and corporations and their relevance for national and international climate policy.\nPractical and academic insights on the role of human rights in the pursuit of action on climate change.\nForward-looking reflection and interactive discussion on international and European climate law.\nOpportunities to engage with one another and the speakers through group work and case studies relevant to your own work.\n\nWho can attend?\nWe designed this programme for people who need practical answers\, not just abstract theory. The training applies to you whether you have a legal background or not. You will benefit from this course if you are: \n\nCivil servants and local policymakers: Learn how to audit your municipal decisions so you can protect your community and comply with human rights requirements.\nCorporate counsel and business staff: Understand what the new European regulations mean for supply chains and corporate policies\, so you know where to start before the deadlines hit.\nNGOs and strategic litigators: Connect with other advocates and refine your legal strategies based on the latest court victories and setbacks.\nAcademics and diplomats: Deepen your understanding of how international climate law evolves in real-time.\n\n  \nThe programme\nDay one focuses on the international stage\, covering the UN climate regime\, the ICJ Advisory Opinion on climate change\, climate obligations under international human rights law\, and strategic climate litigation. \nDay two zooms in on climate law in Europe\, looking at the European Climate Law and relevant regulations\, the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and the Klimaseniorinnen case\, the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and climate obligations for corporations\, and the Energy Charter Treaty. \nInterested?\nRegistration for this course is now open. If you cannot join this year\, please fill out this form to stay informed about future editions and upcoming enrolment dates. \nFee: Both days: €1050 | Only day 1 or day 2: €595 \nNGOs attending with 2 or more members receive a 20% discount.

SUMMARY:[CLEER conference] The European Union as a sanctioning actor: Legal and institutional developments
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the joint CLEER – MINOS conference that aims to take stock of the EU’s evolving sanctioning practice and to answer some of the most pressing conceptual\, normative and practical legal questions concerning this practice. \nOver the past decades\, the European Union (EU) has become one of the most active sanctioning actors. EU sanctions (restrictive measures) have expanded significantly in scope\, frequency\, and ambition. At this moment\, there are over 40 different EU sanctioning regimes in force. Some of them implement UN Security Council resolutions or expand them with stricter and additional measures. The EU also has a long history of imposing autonomous sanctions\, a trend that has been reinforced following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. \nThis increasing reliance on sanctions has been accompanied by important legal and institutional developments. Judicial scrutiny by the Court of Justice of the European Union\, evolving roles for the EU’s institutions and new anti-circumvention measures have all reshaped the EU sanctions practice. Continued tensions exist between the adoption of sanctions as part of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) and other areas of EU law. Tackling sanctions of circumvention and ensuring the uniform and effective implementation of restrictive measures\, in full respect of fundamental rights and freedoms\, remains high on the agenda. \nThis event is co-organised by The Centre for the Law of EU External Relations (CLEER)\, the T.M.C. Asser Instituut\, and the Multidisciplinary International Network on Sanctions (MINOS) operating at Ghent University.
