Our aims

The Victorian Environmental Law Student Network is a student-run organisation based at the University of Melbourne.

The VELSN aims to:

• provide a platform for the discussion of present and developing issues in environmental law, animal law, business law and sustainability, international environmental law and other related areas of law
• connect law students who are interested in these areas with each other and with relevant professional opportunities

Get involved with the VELSN!

Acknowledgement of Traditional Ownership

The VELSN acknowledges and pays its respect to the Elders, families and descendants of the Wurundjeri People who have been, and are, the traditional custodians of the land on which the University of Melbourne sits. We acknowledge that the land in which we meet was the place of age-old ceremonies of celebration, initiation and renewal and that the local Aboriginal peoples have had and continue to have a unique role in the life of these lands. Sovereignty was never ceded.
