Cross-Border Skills Education in Environmental and Natural Resources Law as a New Field of Expertise in Asia

My research project examines how to develop cross-border skills education in environmental and natural resources law as an emerging field of legal expertise. Focusing on East and Southeast Asian jurisdictions, and addressing both academic legal education and legal services education and training (LSET), it assesses the possibility to set standards of competence and develop innovative pedagogical devices on a regional basis. Ultimately, it seeks to illuminate how cross-border legal skills education in such a complex field of legal expertise (at the crossroads of the national, international, and transnational realms) partakes into the construction of ‘global environmental law’ understood as a set of shared representations, common practices, and new normativities.
