Many governance measures are developed by lawyers, government officials, and experts in science and engineering whose specialized knowledge inform the development of standards and the measures of outcomes. Yet when those regulatory mechanisms break down, remedies can be hard to identify. Stakeholders, including environmental organizations, may pursue remedies in courts at regional, nationalor transnational levels. Courts in these different jurisdictions therefore become a significant but understudied part of the policy-making apparatus. This workshop invites scholars to synthesize new models of legal mobilization in this pressing regulatory environment (1) through litigation;(2) through local and regional governance;(3) through the variable expertise taken as relevant to making decisions, including data analytics expertise and law.

许多治理措施是由律师、政府官员和科学与工程专家制定的，他们的专业知识为标准的制定和成果的衡量提供了信息。然而，当这些监管机制失灵时，很难找到补救措施。包括环境组织在内的利益攸关方可在区域、国家或跨国各级法院寻求补救。因此，这些不同司法管辖区的法院成为决策机构中重要但研究不足的一部分。本次研讨会邀请学者们在这种紧迫的监管环境中综合法律的动员新模式：（1）通过诉讼;（2）通过地方和区域治理;（3）通过与决策相关的可变专业知识，包括数据分析专业知识和法律。
