With the quick multiplication of climate cases,\u00a0<strong>databases<\/strong>\u00a0appear as\u00a0<strong>key tools<\/strong>\u00a0in documenting and analysing cases, strategies, and outcomes. These repositories of knowledge have the potential to serve as a foundation for shaping future legal efforts.<\/p>\n<p>In the morning session, this seminar will\u00a0<strong>bring together leading scholars<\/strong>\u00a0to explore the transformative potential of databases in climate litigation. The discussion will highlight two main climate litigation databases and their contributions to legal and policy advancements: the database on Youth in climate litigation of the University College Cork and the database on Human Rights and Climate litigation of the University of Z\u00fcrich. It will also dive into the methodologies behind the development of such complex datasets, exploring data collection, and analysis.<\/p>\n<p>During the afternoon session, through the\u00a0<strong>presentation of the upcoming CLAIM project<\/strong>, it will explore how the upcoming database of the project could be designed to center diverse knowledge systems and empower marginalised actors to drive strategic litigation.<\/p>\n<p>This seminar aims to\u00a0<strong>exchange good practices<\/strong>\u00a0and<strong>\u00a0collect feedback<\/strong>\u00a0from the experience of key scholars and identify pathways for building an impactful climate litigation database in the frame of the CLAIM project.
