… The FHML has decided to invest in the further development of PhD Track as an efficient digital tool to help the administrative work processes around the PhD trajectories. The digitization of the entire process is currently ongoing, step by step, with constant improvements being implemented to ensure the smoothest possible experience for all involved. The first work process to be digitized concerns the composition of the Assessment Committee. Other work processes, such as the admission of the PhD candidate and supervisory team, and the request for a change in the supervisory team will follow.

… Strengthening EU Environmental Law: Legal Perspectives on Greening Europe Abstract This lecture will focus on the possibilities of the criminal law to enforce the environmental acquis within the Member States. There will be a discussion of the 2008 Environmental Crime Directive and its major challenges. A critical analysis will be provided of the role of the criminal law in comparison to other instruments in the so-called toolkit (administrative and civil sanctions). The question will also arise to what extent the criminal law is able to lead to a level-playing-field and can avoid a race-to-the-bottom between Member States. Specific attention will be given to the relationship between criminal law and administrative law and more particularly the question whether the criminal law can intervene, also when the conditions of regulation have been followed. In relation to this, the question will also be addressed whether so-called ecocide-type crimes could be criminalized in an autonomous manner. Bio Prof. Dr. Michael G. Faure LL.M. became academic …
