Overview
Features
In a complex world, environmental policy and law decisions have implications for the environment and the people that reside within, or rely upon it, and this Environmental Law and Social Justice course at Bournemouth University will enable you to understand these impacts.
Laws on permitting, standards, compliance & enforcement mechanisms, voluntary instruments, liability regimes and citizens’ environmental rights all play a part in translating policies, goal and social objectives into reality. However, such implications may not be equitably distributed amongst all members of society and may be perceived as socially unjust.
This is particularly the case where segments of society experience economic loss, greater risk from natural hazards, and a reduced quality of life either as a result of an environmental policy choice, or due to lack of effective frameworks to achieve social justice.
