The graduate students of 成人VR视频鈥檚 Faculty of Law are pleased to announce their annual graduate law conference.

The conference will be held in Montreal, Canada, on May 13 and 14, 2017. We invite graduate students in law and related disciplines to submit papers on the theme of the conference,聽 and particularly on issues of global significance. Speakers will present their research in panels on various aspects of the theme, each moderated by a chair.

This conference offers an academic forum for graduate students, other scholars, members of the legal profession, government and industry to consider, exchange and develop new ideas, concepts and approaches that bridge the gap between law and other disciplines.

Particularly designed for graduate students, this conference aims at creating a dynamic forum for new and emerging scholars to stretch intellectual boundaries, receive feedback on their research and build academic networks. Further, conference participants will have the opportunity to share in 成人VR视频鈥檚 rich intellectual culture, with its vibrant graduate community.

Conference Theme:

The theme for this year鈥檚 conference is 鈥�Governing our commons: what matters to us today鈥�.

In the words of the United Nations Environmental Program ():

The 鈥楪lobal Commons鈥� refers to resource domains or areas that lie outside of the political reach of any one nation State. International law identifies four global commons namely: the High Seas; the Atmosphere; Antarctica; and, Outer Space.

However, when the conference organizers refer to the commons, they use the term in a far broader sense, as meaning anything or anyone in which the public at large has a common interest, including but not restricted to the following:

• air and space;
• cyberspace;
• the environment;
• democracy;
• energy;
• food;
• health care;
• human rights;
• indigenous peoples;
• intellectual property;
• the protection of cultural rights;
• privacy;
• telecommunications;
• international crimes; and
• the protection of the human person and human society.

In other words, the conference organizers mean any resource of interest to humankind鈥攚hether natural or human-made.

We are seeking a diverse range of papers touching on the commons in the legal sphere and from other disciplines related to law. We encourage applicants to view the theme as an opportunity to explore diverse ideas. The theme of the conference touches on how to govern the commons鈥攚hich matter to us, as humankind鈥攕o that we do the right thing today, in a sustainable way.
