About HNLU

Hidayatullah National Law University, a premier institute for legal education and research is celebrating its 20th Year of establishment. The university’s motto, ‘Dharma Sansthapanartham,’ translates to ‘for the sake of establishing the primacy of laws of eternal values.’ In line with this ethos, HNLU strives to provide advanced legal education that shapes students into more than just legal professionals; it instils in

About the Conference

The SDGs aim to address various social, economic, and environmental issues, such as inequality, climate change, and biodiversity loss. A collaborative effort is required to achieve the SDGs, including trade policies that support sustainable practices and climate action. Adopting sustainable development practices and transforming how we do business, trade, and commerce is necessary to mitigate climate change.

Trade policies can support these efforts by enabling the transition to a greener economy and promoting sustainable trade practices. In this context, this proposed conference will explore the
intersection of climate action, SDGs, and trade and how they can work together to create a path towards a greener future.
