Course content

Environmental, social and governance issues are now a global priority in politics, business and everyday life with new and evolving needs and expectations coming from every sector.

Our LLM Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Law and Policy programme will explore how ESG law and policy are conceived, applied and monitored through the complex challenges of the contemporary world. You'll address real-world challenges facing society – e.g., technology and data, socio-economic inequalities, global crime, depletion of natural resources, climate crisis, and armed conflict – with opportunities to explore the possibilities and limitations of the law to resolve them at the national, international and transnational levels.

This programme is ideal for anyone looking to explore the complex convergence of legal challenges and how ESG law and policy are conceived, applied and monitored.
