I was going through my teaching notes this morning and it occurred to me that with things going online why not use this opportunity to provide a free course on environmental law and justice taught through an interdisciplinary lens focusing on international and domestic law (1/8)

There are many young and inspiring environmental lawyers who will step in to share their experiences. The course will cover cross-cutting issues and meet once a week on Saturday mornings or friday evenings.

To be part of this fill out this google form. We will restrict the first cohort to about fifty and if all goes well we can re-do the course after. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

The course will cover the following areas: Human rights and environment, the role of courts, the challenge of climate governance, biodiversity and wildlife law, forest laws, constitutional law and the environment, pollution and environmental justice.

The objective of the course is to introduce the participants to an interdisciplinary understanding of this topical issue. I will share the detailed curriculum and readings once you fill out the google form.

Each session will last for two hours where a practitioner,researcher,or I will present for 20 minutes followed by a discussion on the readings. I promise to keep it fun with lots of interaction and hope to get participants excited about this area of law and understand its nuances

I want to confirm that this is not restricted to law students it's open to anyone who is interested in the environment. I will try my best to demystify the area of environmental law, keep it jargon-free and make it accessible without compromising on depth.

some questions coming in of how strictly does the participant has to follow the course. I have designed it in a way that the first two classes are essential and after you can plug into areas that interest you as I am sure many are busy with work etc

Received a whopping 222 responses. That is amazing! Will try my best to reach you all and speaking with a few people to see how we can record the sessions and make it more accessible! Excited to report that we have six teaching volunteers too!
