Environmental Justice: The 2026 IAPL Annual Congress to be Held in Paris Organized by Sciences Po
The Sciences Po Law School will host the annual congress of the International Association of Procedural Law (IAPL) in Paris from October 28 to 30, 2026, dedicated to "Environmental Justice". The event aims to stimulate the mobilization of judicial systems at a time when political responses struggle to make an impact on the ecological front, placing the judge at the center of social dynamics and environmental protection.
The program will span three days across various institutional venues. It will open on October 28 at the Court of Cassation in the presence of top institutional figures, continue on October 29 at the Bar Association Building with debates on jurisdiction and alternative dispute resolutions, and conclude on October 30 at the Sciences Po campus on rue Saint-Guillaume to examine the complex challenge of scientific evidence, the effectiveness of judgments, and a practical case study.
In conjunction with the congress, a Call for Papers is open on the theme "Judicial dialogue and the role of precedents in environmental justice: national and supranational perspectives". Interested researchers must submit an abstract by June 30, 2026. Selected candidates, whose results will be announced by July 31, will be entitled to a reduced registration fee of €150 and may request to compete for the Marcel Storme Prize.

Latinoamericanistas a dos bandas: Un ejercicio de parejas transatlánticas
The name of the meeting evokes the skill of a billiard player who demonstrates dexterity by striking the ball against the side cushions of the table in search of a carom. It also alludes to the two shores defining the opposite sides of the Atlantic, marking a geographical division that often influences how a subject is perceived in each space. With the aim of turning this duality into a point of convergence—just like in a carom—we invite this gathering of Latin American scholars from Italy and countries south of the Río Bravo, united by communities of themes or authors.
PRIMER CURSO INTENSIVO SOBRE “LA COMPARACIÓN JURÍDICA Y LOS
DESAFÍOS PARA UNA SOCIEDAD PLURAL Y UNA ECONOMÍA
SUSTENTABLE Y SOLIDARIA”
April 22-24, 2025
University of Havana
Coordinators: Silvia Bagni and Yan Guzmán Hernández
This Comparative Law course at the University of Havana is part of a training initiative within the framework of the Avenida Italia International Cooperation Project, aimed at integrated urban redevelopment for local enhancement and support for innovative, organic, sustainable, creative, and circular economies. The project is financed by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS).
The initiative, supported by Unioncamere Piemonte, the Government of People's Power of Havana, and the Municipal Assembly of People's Power of Centro Habana, benefits from the scientific collaboration of the Center for Latin American Studies at the Department of Political and Social Sciences of the University of Bologna and the DIPEC Research and Training Group in European and Comparative Public Law at the University of Siena.
In Cuba, as in the rest of Latin America, Comparative Law is a relatively new legal discipline that has not yet been systematically taught in law degree programs. This intensive Comparative Law Course at the University of Havana is part of the Faculty of Law's commitment to promoting the development and dissemination of Comparative Law studies, as stated in the Havana Charter, a fundamental outcome of the First International Congress on Constitutional and Comparative Law "Cuba CON-PARA 2023".
It is a privilege to count on the expertise and experience of faculty members from the Italian School of Legal Comparison. Together with Cuban academics, they will engage in comparative discussions on forms of the State, the relationship between the Constitution and the economy, sustainable development in the Global South, innovative proposals for public and participatory resource management, and models of solidarity economy.
At the end of the course, participants will have acquired fundamental knowledge for the application of the comparative legal method. They will have deepened their understanding of constitutional and private law categories, such as forms of the State, economic constitutionalism, solidarity economy, and sustainable development, through the analysis of cases from the Latin American continent.
