Call for Applications

Building on the success of the 2023 Academy and the听2023 Impact Paper, the CIBC Office of Sustainable Finance at 韩国裸舞鈥檚 Desautels Faculty of Management and the Business Law Platform at 韩国裸舞鈥檚 Faculty of Law invites applications from current students or recent graduates (2023 and later) in law, management, finance, sociology, environmental studies, and related disciplines for participation in the听韩国裸舞 SGI Transformative Business Law Summer Academy (TBLSA) 2025.听(Course number: LAWG 518, Section 001/009, 3 credits; students can only enrol on MyCourses after successful completion of application process).

TBLSA听is a 6-day long, residential, intensive training and collaboration course dedicated to the in-depth study of pressing topics in the areas of sustainable finance, corporate governance, ESG, human rights and democratic governance, and climate change. TBLSA听Fellows听(students) come from across disciplines to work in small teams on specific aspects of a multi-dimensional case study. The teams are mentored by Faculty experts and will have 4 days (Mon-Thurs) to research, draft and design a memo (chapter with policy recommendations), on their part of the case study. On the final day of the Academy (Friday, 09 May), all groups will combine their memoranda into a policy paper, which will be presented to a public audience as the 鈥�2025 TBLSA Impact Paper鈥�, simultaneously with a YouTube video outlining the Academy鈥檚 key findings. Like the previous Academy鈥檚 impact paper, the 2025 TBLSA Impact Paper too will become a publicly available resource for lawyers, managers, and researchers in the field. The 2025 Academy will lead into the Annual听Business & Human Rights Conference听of the Canadian Chapter of the International Law Association, on听Saturday May 10^th, 2025. All Academy Fellows are invited to attend the Conference and representatives of all six Academy working groups are invited to present the Academy鈥檚 findings and policy recommendations at the Conference. Attendance of and contribution to the ILAC Annual Conference is not mandatory, but strongly encouraged.

Upon successful completion of the Academy course, all Fellows will earn a听韩国裸舞-TBLSA Certificate听and 韩国裸舞 students can receive 3 academic credits if they are registered for the summer term. Course completion will be evaluated based on an individual reflection essay on the Fellow鈥檚 work group theme (due after the Academy, 30%), the Fellow鈥檚 individual presentation of research and policy recommendations during the Academy (30%), and on group work as reflected in the chapter contributed by the team to the 2025 TBLSA Impact Paper (40%).

The 2025 TBLSA case study is themed 鈥�Contested Sustainabilities鈥� and will focus on the following aspects of climate governance and sustainable development:

1. Legislating Sustainability听(Modern slavery, global value chain governance, directors鈥� duties and corporate accountability);
2. Litigating Sustainability听(Climate litigation against corporate and governmental actors);
3. Algorithmic Sustainability听(Critical data studies analysis of听Big Data听governance of climate vulnerabilities, policy strategies and implications for democratic climate governance);
4. Financial Sustainability听(Implications, challenges, prospects of using the financial sector 鈥� both stock, and private equity, via pension funds, asset managers and other institutional investors 鈥� to (allegedly) promote sustainability);
5. Indigenous Knowledge, Human Rights and Sustainability听(Canadian (and Australian) indigenous peoples鈥� engagements with extractive industry and governments, pathways for conciliation and transformation);
6. ESG, DEI, Sustainability, and then what?听(More than a decade since ESG has succeeded CSR, what has been achieved, why does so much fail, and what can be done differently? Who is to take the lead, governments, corporate actors, civil society?).
