You are cordially invited to the Strasbourg Symposium on Translating Climate Science for the Human Rights Court Room: *An Interdisciplinary Encounter between Science and Law*
Science doesn't just need to be generated, it needs to be understood. How can we expect experts in the law to assess and integrate climate science in judicial decision-making?
In light of the increasing pressure on international human rights adjudicative bodies to adjudicate
on matters related to climate change, this symposium brings together eminent contributors from various disciplines to comment on the interpretation of climate science within the judicial setting.
Acknowledging that judges will be tasked to engage in this complex, interdisciplinary exercise, the symposium seeks to mirror this complexity by bringing together scientists, historians and legal experts to discuss comparative approaches to climate litigation, potential pitfalls, practical challenges as well as options for successful climate litigation before human rights adjudicative bodies. Underpinning this is the endeavour to provide a baseline of understanding for various aspects of climate science: ranging from attribution questions concerning distinct emitters to quantifying ambition targets for individual states.
The aim of this symposium is thus of two-fold nature:
1) knowledge sharing and providing an instructive part for decision-makers to use as guideposts when confronted with complex climate science; and
2) opening up an interactive forum between the different disciplines to facilitate a multi-layered, rich understanding of each other’s work.
The event will be followed by a reception.
