Communicating European Union Environmental Law and Policy

In May 2019, the Centre for Law and the Environment was successful in its bid for funding under the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Communicating Europe Initiative 2019.  Funding was awarded to develop and implement an information and awareness-raising project on the theme Communicating European Union Environmental Law and Policy.

The project is built around two events focusing sharply on EU environmental law. The aim is to promote greater knowledge and understanding of EU environmental law, to generate informed debate on this vitally important area of law and to explore how it can be deployed effectively to deliver better environmental protection. Áine Ryall is the Principal Investigator for the project.

The Youth Climate Justice Project analyses the growing trend of child and youth climate action, particularly how they are claiming and asserting their own rights under the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
