International Conference on Consumer Law

Sustainable Consumption

12th and 13th march 2020
Leiria, Portugal
Auditorium  – Building  – ESTG/IPleiria

Sustainable consumption is one of the main goals of the European Union. Bearing in mind the global scarcity of natural resources, the climate change and the demand for energy and resources, consumption must be faced by producers and consumers in a sustainable perspective. In this regard, the European Union has been introducing a range of policies and measures aiming the sustainable production and consumption. In this conference we intend to focus on the general principles and basic legal framework regarding sustainable consumption in the EU and in national legal systems, namely concerning biodiversity, eco-labelling and eco-design, water protection, air pollution and circular economy. The Conference will be the perfect forum where international scholars, practitioners, representatives of consumer organizations, public authorities and business can gather together to present and discuss this global problem of sustainability in Consumer Law.
