Dear all,
DemEd offers some great courses (I know as I have done most of them) on sustainability and law. Each course is held online with two Zoom sessions taking approx 10 hours in total to complete.
For the Spring term 2026 the following courses are being offered. Learners have to apply for a bursary and if successful will be able to take the course for free. It is available for learners all over the world. It is a fantastic way to fill in some gaps about how international law affects the topics we think about all the time. Deadline for application is Monday 5 Jan 2026.
So apply now, the application form is short. The investment rules one is new and looks particularly relevant for this group. I am wholeheartedly recommend the wealth economy and trade rules ones - really interesting and particularly relevant given the recent discussions at COP.
- Key Essentials: Wealth Economy, SDGs & the Law (23 Feb – 4 March 2026)
- Key Essentials: Trade Rules, SDGs & the Law (4 – 13 March 2026)
- Key Essentials: Investment Rules, Sustainable Development and the Law (13 – 22 March 2026)
