Abstract
Working closely with Schumacher College in England, the School of Law at
Queen's University Belfast has introduced a number of innovative pedagogical
approaches to the study of law and sustainable development. This
article explores a collaboration with Schumacher Ireland resulting in a
residential student experience with a view to combining an immersive
experience of work and conviviality to encourage student-led inquiries
into their legal vocation and commitment to sustainability. A second
experiment has drawn on the Climate Interactive online tool to provide
climate change students with an opportunity to experience negotiations in
real time.
