Private law is increasingly recognized as a powerful tool for shaping sustainable societies and addressing urgent environmental challenges. In this context, the Routledge Handbook of Private Law and Sustainability will be officially launched at the International Conference on Private Law and Sustainability: Shaping Legal Pathways for a SustainableFuture, hosted by the University of Minho on December 19-20, 2024.
This groundbreaking volume explores how private law can contribute to tackling global sustainability issues, featuring case studies from over 20 countries on topics such as property law reforms, sustainable consumer practices, corporate climate litigation, and innovative legal technologies. Designed as a comprehensive resource, the Handbook is aimed at scholars, policymakers, and legal practitioners working at the intersection of law and environmental sustainability.
The conference will bring together leading experts to discuss the role of private law in advancing sustainability, focusing on critical themes such as environmental regulations, corporate governance, and sustainable investment. The event will include keynote speeches, panel sessions, and the book launch ceremony, fostering a dialogue on the legal pathways necessary to support the global transition to a more sustainable future.
