CEDU – Studies in European Union Law

While cultivating scholarly relations with policy makers, other relevant stakeholders, and the wider public at an international level, CEDU buttresses JusGov’s recognised status at a domestic, EU, and global scale. This Group’s remit is to carry out theoretical and applied research, disseminate knowledge, and to organise outreach activities and offer training on fundamental rights and citizenship, the Union’s internal market and competitiveness, effective judicial protection, and interconstitutionality.

CEDU establishes JusGov as a centre of expertise on matters that are crucial to EU integration. Besides, it is through CEDU that our Research Centre is fuelling research and advanced training programmes in EU law and raising awareness of related emerging topics. A prime example of this is the leading role CEDU plays in shaping and spreading understanding of the correlation between human rights and climate change, putting JusGov at the forefront of guaranteeing quality, informed, and effective access to justice for all.

Our approach covers not only the growing of proven capabilities, but also the maturing of promising talents, and our commitment to bridging the generational gap in research and higher education epitomises our unwavering pursuit of sustainable solutions for scholarly excellence and the transmission of knowledge. While continuing to boost our scientific standing through publications and events, we are also geared towards translating our research into tangible benefits in everyday contexts.

With CEDU, we stand ready to evolve, innovate, and take the lead in an evershifting legal landscape, making sure that JusGov stays ahead of the curve in terms of European legal studies and training for many years to come.
