Sisältö

During the course, the participants get familiar with the concept of sustainability and the importance of private law while trying to promote sustainable development. First, the relevant private law questions have to be identified. For example, the business models of the so called Circular Economy and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) are going to be studied. Second, the participants are going to address the content of the regulation we have at the moment, both at the EU level, and at the national level. Thirdly, the acceptability of the regulation is going to be studied. The participants are required to ponder it the law needs amendments, or if it is possible to interpret the regulation we have at the moment so that the sustainability goals are reasonably met.
