After 30 years of research excellence at the Schulich School of Law (formally known as Dalhousie Law School), the Marine & Environmental Law Programme (MELP) faculty was formally recognized by the Dalhousie Board of Governors in 2004 with creation of the Marine & Environmental Law Institute (MELAW).
MELAW supports student collaboration in addressing environmental issues through the Environmental Law Students Society and the East Coast Environmental Law Association, a non-governmental organization dedicated to environmental law education and advocacy.
