The Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy and Natural Resource Governance (CEENRG) continues its weekly CEENRG Seminar Series throughout Easter Term of the 2022-2023 academic year. Our seminars are informal and friendly talks allowing discussion of on-going work for both 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, governance and economics of climate change, environment and energy. All are welcome!

In 2023 Easter Term, our weekly seminars typically take place in person in the David Attenborough Building (DAB) and/or online in Zoom every Thursday at 3-4 pm* (UK time) between 27 April and 15 June 2023. We warmly invite our colleagues in Cambridge to attend the seminars in person in the DAB - no registration needed. Alternatively, if you would like to join any of the seminars online via Zoom, please register using this online form.
