PLES has identified four primary tasks that include both research and participation for domestic and international environmental policy and law.
![]() |
We seek to create constructive dialogues between academics, practitioners, policy makers, environmental groups and concerned citizens. Via this vibrant forum, more environmental issues could be brought up, fully discussed and implemented into future policy. |
1. Establishing environmental sustainability policy and law database
This database collects and analyzes environmental legal materials covering from domestic legislation, government policies, court decisions, international treaties/conventions, to comparative environmental policies and laws. Additionally, PLES shall issue reports or policy papers on major developments in domestic and international environmental laws, policies as well as court decisions.
2. Focusing on environmental legislation and policy making
Taiwan has successfully implemented major environmental legislation in the last two decades. In response to recent global environmental initiatives and green technology innovation, however, much of this body of law requires further improvement. PLES shall take a lead in major legislative and policy innovations and assist to generate academic discussions and public deliberation.
3. Promoting international participation and cooperation on environmental sustainability
PLES shall serve as a linkage between Taiwan and the world on sustainable environmental law and policy making. It is dedicated to facilitation of international academic exchange and collaboration. Various workshops, research programs and symposia shall be held with other environmental law and policy centers to form strategic alliances. Based on comprehensive studies and frequent cooperation with others, PLES aims to join the discussion of global environmental issues.
4. Facilitating environmental legal education and NGO involvement
It is our priority to facilitate environmental legal education. PLES shall help to provide joint courses with experts in various fields and English courses with transnational collaboration as an attempt to vest our students and future environmental lawyers with interdisciplinary competence and global vision. Environmental law clinics and practical training workshops would also be offered as an important way to reach out to our community.
