Research project:

Corporate accountability, human rights, and climate change:
Towards coherent and just Slovenian and international legal order

The research project, for the first time in a very original way, theoretically analyses the responsibility of companies for human rights to climate change and will develop theoretical and normative foundations for a coherent and fair Slovenian and international legal order. It aims to identify the philosophical, legal, and normative underpinnings of corporate accountability for the negative impacts of climate change on human rights in Slovenian, European, and international legal orders. It aims to provide normative solutions to adapt and mitigate negative human rights effects of businesses due to climate change.
