The European Commission has awarded a three-year energy research grant to the Environment, Energy & Natural Resources Center at the University of Houston Law Center and the French Universite Jean Moulin Lyon 3. The Marie Sklodowska-Curie Action Global Fellowship Award will fund a project entitled "NGOs and Transition Governance in Law." The partnership will explore ways to facilitate public and private efforts to achieve goals of the Paris Agreement on climate change.
Victor B. Flatt, faculty co-director of the Environment, Energy & Natural Resources Center and Dwight Olds Chair in Law at UH, said the work will focus on key global issues in addressing climate change. UHLC and Lyon 3 scholars will include Victor Flatt, Alfonso Lopez de la Osa Escribano, Gina Warren, Tracy Hester, Bernadette le Baut-Ferrarese, Aubin Nzaou-Kongo, and others.
