GROMADA Lecture #16: Civic monitoring for environmental law enforcement

Building on the experience of the ‘Sensing for Justice’ project, this hands-on lecture will discuss the potential and actual applications of civic-gathered data as a source of evidence in environmental litigation and as a tool to foster conflict mediation. The participants will be invited to reflect on the role of civic evidence in key case studies and to share their experiences of gathering evidence for law enforcement. The challenges and implications of reliance on the practice will also be disentangled.

Speaker: Anna Berti Suman, Systasis

Recording from 24 June 2024.

GROMADA aims to develop cooperation between European universities to support public and legal capacity for environmental recovery in Ukraine. As the war has brought a huge toll to Ukraine’s environment, the project fosters civic engagement in environmental citizen science in light of its legal dimension. By analysing barriers and opportunities for community engagement in environmental action and peacebuilding, GROMADA emphasises the legal aspects of environmental harm monitoring in war, empowering conflict-affected communities.
