The Research Panels have an extensive range of seminar activities, that attracts a large number of participants – up to a hundred per each seminar. It is also common that The Research Panels co-operate and arrange joint seminars. In some cases, the subject of the seminar is developed into a major conference, which has resulted in additions to SCCL’s publication series.

The members of the Panel consist of both practitioners and academics with particular interest in legal developments in the construction sector.
Many of the topics addressed in this Panel are naturally related to, in particular, the Panel for Law of Contract and Obligations and the Panel for Tort Law. Seminar activities are therefore planned in close co-operation with these Panels.

Current sustainability matters include, among others, proactive environmental efforts, systematic efforts of anti-corruption, measures to ensure good labour conditions within supply chains as well as measures to prevent violations of human rights.
The Panel is focused on promoting research at the interface between traditional commercial law and issues related to sustainability, with particular focus on methods and structures that are needed to consider, develop and implement so-called soft law to meet the expectations of various stakeholders. The research shall aim to, from a socio-economic and legal perspective, illustrate the regulation of sustainability issues that takes place as a result of the requirements placed on companies from various stakeholders. The work within the Panel should further promote exchange of opinions between people active in the Panel’s research and practice. Such topics on sustainability also affect other facets of the Faculty of Law as well as other research panels within SCCL; the interdisciplinary nature of sustainability concerns provide opportunities for cooperation as well as joint activities.

One task is to promote an exchange of views between individuals active in the financial sector. The Panel includes both economists and lawyers, plus representatives of government, the academic community and the private sector. The Panel has established co-operation with the Ministry of Finance, the Central Bank of Sweden, the National Debt Office and the Financial Supervisory Authority.
The Panel shall contribute towards research projects aimed at recruiting a group of competent financial market regulators. Physically assembling a research group at SCCL is part of that ambition. Five postgraduate students are especially closely associated with the Panel, partly through having reference groups from it.

As part of its activities, the Panel initiates and arranges seminars, lectures and conferences with both researchers and practicing lawyers as well as other parties with an interest in the Law of Torts.
