EUU Hosts Annual European Legal Studies Conference 2024

On September 18, 2024, European Union University (EUU) will host its highly anticipated Annual European Legal Studies Conference, a key event in the legal academic calendar. This year’s theme centers on emerging issues in European law, including digital privacy, human rights, and transnational governance. The conference will bring together leading legal scholars, policymakers, and practitioners from across Europe and beyond.

With rapid developments in technology and globalization reshaping the legal landscape, this year's discussions will explore how European law is adapting to new challenges. A significant portion of the conference will focus on digital privacy rights, examining the regulatory frameworks that govern the protection of personal data and the role of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Participants will also engage in discussions about human rights in a shifting political climate, assessing how legal frameworks can safeguard civil liberties amidst political and social changes.

Transnational governance is another critical topic, as the EU navigates complex relationships with both member states and external actors. The conference will explore how legal mechanisms can promote effective collaboration between countries and institutions, particularly in light of challenges such as climate change, migration, and economic disparities. Scholars will present cutting-edge research on the balance between national sovereignty and EU-wide governance, as well as the future of international treaties and agreements.

This annual event not only facilitates academic discourse but also provides an invaluable networking platform for participants to exchange ideas, collaborate on future research projects, and engage in meaningful discussions that shape the future of European law.

EUU remains committed to fostering dialogue on critical legal issues through events like this conference, underscoring its role as a leader in legal education and research.
