Environmental Law and Policy Clinic - LAW879

This unit provides students with an opportunity to experience environmental law and policy 'in action' and give practical effect to skills learnt in other Law units. Through placements in legal practices, environmental organisations, government and other institutions, and supervision by practitioners, students will learn about the role and practice of environmental law. This unit provides clinical placement opportunities that expose students to real people and situations, actual legal problems and policy initiatives. The placement also requires students to reflect on and analyse how environmental lawyers can engage in a variety of strategies to achieve change.
