About me
I am a PhD student in environmental law with a law degree from Stockholm University.
My PhD project examines the relationship between EU fisheries and environmental policy and the legal preconditions to implement an ecosystem approach into the fisheries policy. I use various illustrative examples to analyse the legislation, for example by studying the possibility for EU Member States to implement requirements in environmental legislation in the light of the EU's exclusive competence in the part of the fisheries policy that relates to the conservation of marine biological resources.
Teaching

Within the law programme, I teach Civil Law D and the special course in Environmental Law. I also teach on the Master's programme in Environmental Law.

In addition to teaching lawyers and future lawyers, I also teach environmental law at the Department of Environmental Science and the Department of Physical Geography. At the Baltic Sea Centre, I teach environmental law on the master's programme in marine biology.
