Transnational labour law and the environment: Beyond the bounded autonomous worker
The Labour Law and Development Research Laboratory (LLDRL) Speaker Series and the Canada Research Chair in Transnational Labour welcome , Associate Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Western Ontario.
Professor Seck's presentation听will explore how听transnational labour and environmental law may听come together to protect not only workers, but their families and听communities from health and safety risks associated with听"fast fashion" production.听
Professor Seck's expertise includes corporate social responsibility, international environmental, human rights, and sustainable development law, climate change, and indigenous law, with a focus on extractive industries. She has a strong interest in international and transnational legal theory, notably the relationship between Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) and international legal process theories that are informed by constructivist understandings of international relations.
We will serve a light lunch at 12h30, in advance of the talk at 13h00. RSVP for the lunch by March 9 at julie.fontaine2 [at] mcgill.ca.
