In this episode of Law at the End of the World, we kick off our new ‘Research Skills Series’. In this first installment, Liz shares her extensive experience of obtaining and administering research funding in a practical, skills-focused discussion. She covers her grant history (successes and failures), key lessons about writing successful applications, common misconceptions, and the realities of managing and delivering grant-funded projects. Liz emphasises the importance of building relationships, writing for interdisciplinary audiences, and the significant administrative work involved in running grants. Cristy and Liz also discuss major environmental law developments including New Zealand's controversial marine and coastal legislation, Australia's upcoming EPBC amendments, climate litigation from Bonaire, and new research challenging the effectiveness of carbon offsets.Marine law change angers Māori activist: 'We don't have any rights'New marine protections in the Hauraki GulfEnvironmental Law Initiative v EPAGovernment almost halves methane reduction target, farmers celebrateMajor changes to climate-related disclosures announcedOur Marine Environment 2025Big shakeup for NZ's research fundingA/80/117: Report of the Special Rapporteur on the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation Webinar - Capacity Building on developing Amicus Curiae for the African Court's Advisory Opinion...Would you like to leave us a comment about our show? send us a note hereVisit our podcast website - where you can find more information, including the show notes.
