Abreu Advogados and Instituto de Conhecimento support the 2nd Annual NOVA Green Lab Conference

Abreu Advogados and the Knowledge Institute will support the 2nd Annual NOVA Green Lab Conference, whose theme is ‘The “E” in ESG and Competitiveness: the challenges of the European Union for the next five years’.

Taking place from 11 to 18 November in the Auditorium and Madragoa Room at Abreu’s headquarters in Lisbon, the event marks the two-year anniversary of the Collaboration Protocol between NOVA School of Law, Abreu Advogados and Instituto do Conhecimento, with the aim of promoting research and teaching in the areas of Environmental and Energy Law.

The conference, divided into two sessions, will centre on the legislative changes approved by the European Union in 2023 and 2024 regarding companies’ reporting and due diligence obligations, namely the CSRD and CSDDD.

In the plenary session, to be held in the morning of 11 November in the Abreu Advogados Auditorium, the speakers will discuss the challenges of implementing the CSRD and CSDDD Directives, through the diagnoses and remedies for the competitiveness of European companies recently proposed in the so-called Dragui Report.

In the parallel session, to be held in the afternoon of the 18th, in the Madragoa Room at Abreu Advogados, NOVA Green Lab researcher-collaborators will present their scientific articles developed during the academic year 2023-2024 and to be published in a book entitled ‘E of ESG: Legal Insights and Research on Sustainability Reporting’.
