Members of the Environment and Land Law Strand have expertise in the following areas: access to the countryside, regulatory theory, planning law, green crimes, national infrastructure developments, climate change, sentimental attachments to land, co-ownership and cohabitation, and leases. This Strand is also concerned with corporate governance for sustainability and corporate social responsibility.

We aim to develop projects between multiple academic departments and institutions, as well as with non-academic partners.
