The object of having a research group working on questions relating to Climate Law, Energy law and Environmental Law is to create a forum for identification, analysis and discussion, as well as for dissemination of knowledge on the development of law during a period of time where society's interest in the environment and natural resources is continuously growing.

The research group is lead by Associate Professor Ignacio Herrera Anchustegui.
