IUCN Academy of Environmental Law - Research Survey

This survey gathers information about the research expertise among scholars in the Academy's member institutions. The survey will provide several benefits:

  • One purpose is to compile a database of research activities and expertise, which will assist in planning research grant applications and organizing research teams to work on projects.
  • Another goal is to provide a resource to help individual scholars find colleagues with relevant expertise for research collaboration.
  • Tthe research database may be used as a resource by (post)graduate students seeking additional advice and supervision support, beyond their home institution.
  • We are using the information provided by you, in this survey questionnaire as a direct input into our Directory of scholars, which can be accessed here, on this site, and provides an invaluable resource on environmental law expertise amoungst scholars around the world.

2. Scholarship and Research Activities

In the column listing "primary research", identify those environmental law topics for which you have produced significant scholarship (eg, books, substantial articles, doctoral thesis), or otherwise have demonstrated substantial expertise (eg, consultancy work and legal practice). Ordinarily, this would mean no more than 3 - 5 topics being identified by any individual scholar.

In the next column, detailing "secondary research", please list other environmental law topics that are of relatively minor interest. Such research interests would constitute a small part of your publication record or other research-related achievements. Ordinarily, this would mean no more than 5 - 10 topics being identified by any individual scholar.

Ignore topics that constitute neither your primary nor secondary area of research expertise.
