For our last seminar of the year, we will be joined by Prof Carlos Fernández Liesa (Professor of EU and international law at Carlos III University and member of the UN Human Rights Committee), who will present on "The Concept of Sustainability in EU and International Law". This event is organised jointly with the Public International Law Discussion Group.

The seminar will address the legal relevance of sustainability in international and EU law. Prof Fernández Liesa will examine the extent to which “sustainability“ is a legal concept and present its weaknesses and strengths. In particular, he will examine whether or not this notion is contributing to the evolution of EU and international law, i.e. whether there is a progressive development and codification of EU and international law in relation to sustainability.

The seminar will be held on Monday, 17 June 2024, 1pm - 2pm (UK time). For those of you in Oxford, please come to the IECL Seminar Room (Faculty of Law). As usual, a light sandwich lunch will be offered from 12.30pm. For those of you who want to join us online, please sign up to receive an invitation to the webinar. We will send you the Teams link the day before.

Next week we are joined by Catriona Jarvis (The Last Rights), who will present under the title "Of Grief and Grievance: Towards a Framework of Rights and Accountability for the Deaths of People on the Move". The Last Rights project (http://www.lastrights.net/) is creating a new framework of respect for the rights of missing and dead refugees and migrants and bereaved family members, to transform research and legal principles into deliverable, real benefits and respect for human rights. A practical view on things should always inspire academic research, so we are very happy to welcome on this occasion the representative of an organisation that is doing massive work on the ground.

The seminar will be held exclusively online on Wednesday, 22 May 2024, 1pm - 2pm (UK time). Please, sign up to receive an invitation to the webinar. We will send you the Teams link the day before.
