About the centre
The Centre for Climate Change Law and Governance (CLIMA) at the University of Copenhagen’s Faculty of Law studies the legal and political dimensions of the transition towards sustainable societies. CLIMA takes a broad view of the climate change challenge, and engages in a wide array of matters ranging from the energy transition and sustainable transport to questions of eco-social policy or human rights. At the Faculty of Law, CLIMA offers a series of courses driven by the Centre’s research and supervises theses at all levels. It furthermore serves as a hub for interdisciplinary research and as an interface with stakeholders in Denmark and beyond.
CLIMA currently has about twenty researchers and welcomes visiting scholars and doctoral students.
