Conference in Togo

Conference on climate change in Togo

In October of this year, METRO will co-organize with the faculty of law of the University of Lomé (Togo) a conference at the University of Lomé on the legal aspects of climate change. The conference will be held in French. It promises to be a unique event as it is one of the first of its kind where legal aspects of climate chance will be analysed from different perspectives in French-speaking Africa.

In addition to participants from Africa, also Europeans are explicitly invited to send in proposals. This document (in French) provides the details and the address where the proposals for a paper can be sent.
