Open Call: 13th International Congress of Law in the Portuguese-Speaking World

The submission period is now open for papers to be presented at the 13th International Congress of Law in the Portuguese-Speaking World, devoted to “Technology, the Environment, and Justice”, to be held in the University of the Azores (Ponta Delgada) from 31 May to to 4 June 2027.

Organised by the University of the Azores in partnership with the Research Network on Lusophone Law (REDIL), the Congress will serve as a meeting point for scholars and practitioners across the Portuguese-Speaking world.

Reflecting the theme of this Congress, we seek a multidisciplinary participation (Law, Biology, Health, Environment, (Bio)technological, Environmental, and Computer Engineering, Marine Sciences, and other fields) with some legal or judicial relevance.

Contributions will be articulated through five Thematic Groups: Biotechnology and Law; New Technologies, Artificial Intelligence and Justice; Biodiversity, Multiculturalism and Law; Sovereign Oceans; and Environmental Protection and Sustainability.

Paper proposals may be submitted until 30 November 2026.
