SUMMARY:Presentation by University Libre de Bruxelles and Vrije Universit
 y Brusssels
DESCRIPTION:Despite growing scientific consensus on climate and environme
 ntal challenges and extensive regulatory developments in recent years\, 
 the implementation and enforcement of ESG accountability frameworks face
  significant headwinds globally. Companies operating cross-border projec
 ts confront conflicting ESG standards\, extraterritorial regulations\, a
 nd asymmetric enforcement regimes\, whilst states grapple with the limit
 s of traditional policy tools in driving meaningful corporate accountabi
 lity. Simultaneously\, ESG-related litigation is emerging as a powerful 
 enforcement mechanism\, with courts increasingly called upon to adjudica
 te climate obligations\, supply chain due diligence failures and greenwa
 shing claims.\n \nAgainst this background\, this session explores ESG ac
 countability from four complementary perspectives: international normati
 ve frameworks\, state-level mechanisms\, corporate obligations and judic
 ial enforcement.\n\n
