The module

From Climate Ambition to Real-World Accountability.

Explore how the EU's green transition moves from policy and legislation into companies, supply chains and courts.

ENGAGE equips students to work with the EU's green transition as it evolves — not as a settled body of rules, but as a rapidly developing framework of policy, regulation and accountability.

Open to students across all THUAS programmes, the module goes beyond law alone. From international climate commitments to corporate responsibility and supply-chain governance, students explore how the rules of the green transition work when they meet real-world decisions.

ENGAGE is a Jean Monnet Module co-funded by the European Union, preparing students to understand and advise on the green transition while its regulatory framework is still evolving.
