  • Friday 12 May 2023Climate Litigation in Comparative Contexts - Friday conference online from 8:15am to 5:30pm (NZST)

    New Zealand is an increasingly active climate litigation jurisdiction. Lawyers, judges and scholars alike are dealing with the novel challenges this poses for the law and legal processes. The New Zealand Centre for Environmental Law (NZCEL) and the Legal Research Foundation invite members of the New Zealand legal community and participants from abroad to join in this comparative law event, which brings together a stellar line-up of New Zealand and overseas speakers. Speakers include New Zealand, Australian and European judges; leading practitioners and academics in climate litigation from New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Canada and the USA; and a panel on the science of climate change chaired by the Prime Minister’s Chief Science Advisor. Register early as in-person places are limited.
