SUMMARY:State’s obligations on Climate Change. A Latin American Perspective
DESCRIPTION:States have an obligation to address climate change that derives from independent and cumulative legal sources\, including the 2015 Paris Agreement. More recently\, on 23 July 2025\, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) released its Advisory Opinion on the Obligations of States in respect of Climate Change. This case represents the highest example of climate litigation to date\, indicating that climate change treaties set binding obligations for states. But what happens on the ground? What are the possibilities of international law to hold States to account? What are the main impediments for States to follow up on climate change treaties? And what is the role of non-State actors? What are the steps forward? \nThe Panel will situate the discussion in the context of Latin America to address these questions\, bringing together broad expertise and experience on the topic. \nThis event is organized by the Department of Latin American Studies and the Institute for History at Leiden University\, in collaboration with the Bolivian Embassy. \nPanelists\n\nH.E. Roberto Calzadilla – Ambassador of the Plurinational State of Bolivia to the Kingdom of the Netherlands\nAdv. LL.M.\, Msc Edgardo Sobenes – International lawyer with extensive experience at the ICJ and climate change law.\nDr. Natalia Donner (Leiden University) – Member of Knowledges in Terra\nLLM Liam Siry (Maastricht University) – Researcher on International Climate Change Law\nModerator: Dr. Soledad Valdivia (Latin American Studies/Institute for History\, Leiden University)\n\nPanelists will first discuss the questions\, each providing a contribution to the discussion from their experience and expertise. After this\, the floor will be open to the public to ask questions to the panelist and participate of the discussion. \nRegistration\nThe event is open to the public but registration is necessary.  \nFor questions\, please email dr. Soledad Valdivia at s.valdivia.rivera@hum.leidenuniv.nl. \nLocation: Wijnhaven (Turfmarkt 99\, 2511 DP Den Haag)\nZaal: 3.60 \n	Register here This link opens in a new tab

SUMMARY:Voices of Gen Z: Shaping Transitions in the City of Peace and Justice
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, October 2\, 2025\, Voices of Gen Z: Shaping Transitions in the City of Peace and Justice will be presented at Leiden University’s Wijnhaven location in The Hague. Written by Dr. Rosa Groen and Dr. Tahir Abbas\, this new publication brings together research on how young people in The Hague engage with social justice\, policymaking\, and urban transitions. \n  \nProgram\n17.00 hrs – Walk-in \n17.30 hrs – Opening remarks by Dr. Tahir Abbas \n17.45 hrs – Foreword by Dr. Rosa Groen \n18.00 hrs – Discussion between Dr. Groen and Dr. Abbas \n18.30 hrs – Closing \n  \nSpeakers\nRosa Groen\nDr. Rosa Groen is a senior researcher Green and Just Transitions at The Hague University of Applied Sciences. Her work focuses on youth participation\, sustainable transitions and democratic engagement\, with a particular emphasis on involving students by making use of the Inner Development Goals (IDGs) and transition models. In 2023 she was named Sustainable Lecturer of Higher Education for her efforts to integrate the SDGs into teaching and research. \nShe is leading EU-funded projects such as EUM POWER (2025-2029) on the rights and inclusion of migrant workers as European citizens\, addressing better information sharing for EU-intra labor migrants in 9 different EU regions. She also leads several projects involving young people in The Hague\, particularly in Escamp and Moerwijk\, addressing issues such as police discrimination\, social cohesion and political participation. \nHer current research focuses on climate governance and justice\, increasing climate action related engagement of primary and secondary school pupils\, students\, and future teachers. She is a member of the scientific working group of the National Citizens’ Council on Climate. Rosa obtained her PhD with the dissertation Walking the Extra Mile\, which explored how governance networks attract and retain international organizations in European cities. \n  \nTahir Abbas\nProfessor Tahir Abbas is Professor of Criminology and Global Justice at Aston University\, and Honorary Professor at the University of Exeter. He was formerly the Professor of Radicalisation Studies at the Institute of Security and Global Affairs\, Leiden University (The Hague). His interdisciplinary research focuses on radicalisation\, Islamophobia\, and ethnic relations\, combining political sociology and critical theory. \nHe has led EU-funded projects such as DRIVE (2021–2024) and PROTONE (2023–2025)\, addressing violent extremism and the protection of religious spaces. Previously\, he held academic positions at Istanbul University and the University of Birmingham\, and served in government as a Senior Research Officer. \nProf. Abbas has authored and edited numerous publications\, including Ethnicity\, Religion\, and Education in the UK (Routledge\, 2024) and Global Counter-Terrorism: A Decolonial Approach (Manchester University Press\, 2025). He is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences and the Royal Society of Arts. \n  \nDescription of the book\nThis book provides empirical evidence on youth engagement with peace\, justice\, and strong institutions (SDG 16). It takes a bottom-up approach to exploring the meaning and value of global citizenship and social cohesion. It showcases three studies about how the younger generation interprets SDG 16\, EU Climate policies (such as the European Green Deal) and the goals of The Hague as the International City of Peace and Justice. The city of The Hague is dedicated to the promotion of peace\, justice\, inclusivity and security and yet it is one of the most segregated cities in the Netherlands. This book challenges the assumptions that young people are uninterested in local decision-making or lack the competence to contribute to improving their neighborhoods. It gives voice to young people\, generation Z\, (of 13-25 years old) in disadvantaged and advantaged areas in The Hague examining the experiences they have\, their views in contrast with those of educators and policymakers in The Hague\, and their views compared between different areas and age groups in The Hague. This book brings together multiple funded projects to discuss how we can engage young people in democratic processes including policymaking and societal challenges. It helps to bridge the gap between young people and policymakers and therefore speaks to policymakers\, academics\, students and lecturers on social cohesion\, criminology\, and social policies. \n  \n	Register here This link opens in a new tab
