个人简介
Stephen Minas’s research concerns novel transnational processes of law, policy and dispute resolution that address the emerging sustainable economy, focused on the nexus of climate change, finance, energy and technology. This research agenda draws on areas of legal doctrine and practice including public international law, private international law, energy law, financial law and European Union law.
Professor Minas is a senior research fellow of the Transnational Law Institute of King’s College London, a member of the UNFCCC Technology Executive Committee’s task forces on climate technology financing and mitigation, the IUCN World Commission on Environmental Law and the Young Academics Network of the Foundation for European Progressive Studies, as well as an honorary fellow of the School of Population Health at the University of Melbourne. He has consulted to or collaborated with a variety of international organizations and think-tanks, including the Commonwealth Secretariat on the development of a law and climate change toolkit.
Previously, Professor Minas has worked as a visiting lecturer at King’s College London (teaching in areas including finance law, climate change law and transnational law), an adviser to the Premier of the Australian state of Victoria, working on a variety of policy and legal areas including international trade and investment, energy and the environment, and for members of the Australian Parliament. He is admitted as an Australian lawyer and has completed the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre’s Tribunal Secretary Accreditation Programme.
