For the 33 consecutive year, public law academics, high court judges
and public law practitioners from all over the world, gathered for the
Reunion of the European Group of Public Law, that serves as the
European Scientific Council of the EPLO.
The Conference topic was examined through three sessions. The first
session involved an exploration to the challenges the climate change
imposes to European and Global public law, the second session covered
the aspects of climate change governance and decision-making, and the
third session touched upon the effective judicial review of public action
or inaction related to Climate Change Law. Workshops comprised the
fourth session.
