Papers on environmental law, energy law, natural resources law or water law are eligible. No junior scholar may participate in the Colloquium more than twice.<\/p>\n

The panel will select the proposals for discussion based on the degree of innovation they exhibit, the extent to which they point toward practical solutions to environmental problems, and whether, based on the scholarly and analytical quality of the proposals, they are likely to lead to high-quality work products.<\/p>\n

To enter, please submit a cover letter, an outline or concept paper of 5-15 double-spaced pages, and a C.V. to sabincolloquium@law.columbia.edu<\/a> by March 15<\/strong>.
