7th Annual Conference for Environmental Professionals

This conference will be the seventh annual event at UCC and seeks to build on the success of previous events, at which more than two hundred environmental professionals have attended to hear from a panel of expert speakers in the area.  This event caters to a wide range of professionals, including the legal professions, policy-makers, regulators, environmental interest groups, local authorities, environmental consultants, industry, and environmental service providers, and provides an opportunity for the dissemination of information on the latest legislative and judicial developments, research results and evolving best practice in the area of Environmental Law.  It also provides a truly unique forum for the exchange of ideas among key figures and stakeholders on all sides of the environmental protection debate. This year’s programme includes specialist sessions on Climate Change, Enforcement of Environmental Law, Environmental Liability, and Infrastructure and Waste, with 15 expert speakers coming from across Ireland, Northern Ireland and the U.K.
