Why your role matters:
In the past decade, climate risk has evolved from a problem existing within the physical sciences to one that affects almost every economic sector. Industries are now well-aware that climate change poses major challenges in the form of economic, social and governance risks and stakeholders are increasingly undertaking litigation to hold them accountable for their performance on that front.
The UNSW Institute for Climate Risk & Response (ICRR) brings together a unique blend of expertise in climate science, behavioural science, economic science, law and governance in order to help industry action these changes.
This appointment of a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer (Climate Litigation) to the Institute will promote the achievement of these aims and objectives. Specifically, you will be required to undertake a program of research that will have significant impact in the scholarship related to the field of climate litigation in Australia and globally and create a nationally recognised research track record. You will apply and, where necessary adapt, existing research methods, and develop new methods, to the study of climate litigation.
This position is based in Kensington NSW Australia. The position reports to the Director of the ICRR and will maintain close research ties with the School of Private and Commercial Law in UNSW’s highly rated (12th globally in QS’24) Faculty of Law and Justice.
