Welcome to the course!
This course focuses on the legal framework governing organic products, sustainability, marketing, and advertising. We will examine relevant national and EU legislation, labelling requirements for organic food products, nutrition and health claims, as well as legal issues related to sustainability communication.
Another key focus will be on the principles of unfair competition law and their relevance to green marketing and environmental advertising, including the legal challenges associated with greenwashing.
The aim of the course is not only to provide you with a solid understanding of the relevant legal framework, but also to explore its practical application. You will learn how to assess legal issues independently, work with relevant legal sources and academic literature, and develop practical recommendations based on your legal analysis.
All relevant course materials, information, and organisational updates will be made available on Moodle throughout the semester.
