Triple Planetary Crisis Research Group
The Triple Planetary Crisis Research Group focuses on collaborative research into legal dimensions of the triple crises confronting our planet: climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution.
Group objectives
We work collaboratively with colleagues in law and other disciplines to generate high quality research; contribute to legal and policy debate; foster socio-legal research and methods in environmental law; provide support for researchers including HDRs and ECRs to develop work on the legal dimensions of the triple planetary crisis; create spaces for building relationships and exploring opportunities to collaborate within and beyond our discipline; and to facilitate the mainstreaming of ecological sustainability in research across the Department of Business Law and Taxation and beyond.
We work to achieve these aims by:
- Publishing research in journals, books, working papers and in the media
- Developing and disseminating our research at conferences, seminars and workshops, and via social media
- Working with a range of partners, such as legal practitioners, business groups, government agencies, non-government organisations and other academic institutions
- Providing a platform for obtaining competitive research grants and industry support for research
- Recruiting quality domestic and international graduate research students who can contribute to our research initiatives.
