The Lliuya Shock: Stress-Testing UK Climate Liability Risk
Join us for an interactive workshop exploring how a major development in climate litigation could reshape legal, corporate, financial and public policy risk in the United Kingdom.
Led by Nicholas Young, Research Fellow in the Oxford Sustainable Law Programme and DPhil candidate in Law at the University of Oxford, the session offers a practical example of Oxford-style executive learning: applied, discussion-led and focused on real-world decision-making under uncertainty.
Working in table groups, participants will step into the roles of key stakeholders in a realistic climate litigation scenario, including an energy company, civil society litigants, a pension fund, a government department, insurers and an affected community. Together, they will examine how a significant shift in case law could affect board decision-making, investor engagement, insurance markets, regulatory disclosure, public policy responses and the future trajectory of climate litigation.
The workshop is designed to be accessible, engaging and highly participatory. Participants will test legal, commercial and strategic arguments in a realistic multi-stakeholder setting. No prior legal expertise is required.
Register now to experience Oxford-style executive learning and explore one of the most significant emerging risks facing organisations today.
