Weekly seminars by the Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy, and Natural Resource Governance
Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy and Natural Resource Governance (CEENRG) continues its weekly CEENRG Seminar Series throughout the 2024-2025 academic year. Our seminars are informal and friendly talks allowing discussion of on-going work for early career researchers, senior academics, and policymakers. Presenters are expected to speak for 30-45 mins to allow substantial time for discussion. Talks focus on issues in law, policy, economics and governance of climate change, environment and energy. All are welcome!
In 2024 Michaelmas term, our weekly seminars continue to take place in a hybrid format: in person in the David Attenborough Building (DAB) and online in Zoom every Thursday at 3-4 pm*,** (UK time) between 10 October and 5 December 2024.
