Weekly seminars by the Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy, and Natural Resource Governance
The Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy and Natural Resource Governance (CEENRG) continues its weekly CEENRG Seminar Series throughout Lent Term of the 2022-2023 academic year. These are informal and friendly talks allowing discussion of on-going work for PhD students, early career researchers and senior academics. Presenters are expected to speak for 30-45 mins to allow substantial time for discussion. Talks focus on issues in law, policy and governance of climate change, environment and energy. All are welcome!
In 2023 Lent Term, our weekly seminars typically take place in a hybrid format (online in Zoom + in-person meeting) every Thursday at 3-4 pm (UK time) between 26 January and 16 March 2023*. To continue engaging with experts globally, we keep an online component of the series, with all seminars broadcasted in Zoom and some of our speakers presenting online. We also warmly invite our colleagues in Cambridge to attend the seminars in person in the David Attenborough Building (DAB).
The full programme of the CEENRG Seminar Series, including time and location of each seminar, can be found in the 2023 Lent Term Card below, or in a poster format here. If you are interested in attending any of the seminars online, please register using this form to receive a Zoom meeting link on the day of the seminar.
