We believe that every person has a part to play in protecting our environment. But many people feel that they are &#8220;just one person&#8221; and what they do as an individual will make no difference.<\/p>\n<p>In creating the first-ever Environmental Law Student Outreach Programme in Singapore, our starting point here at APCEL is to change that attitude because <strong>we believe in the power of the individual<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>To empower students to understand and think critically about what they can do to protect the environment, APCEL&#8217;s Environmental Law Student Outreach Programme aims to introduce pre-tertiary students (from Secondary school onwards) to key ideas and concepts about environmental law.<\/p>\n<p>Our goal is to plant seeds of knowledge and equip the next generation of changemakers to engage with laws and policies to protect our natural world.<\/p>\n<p>During these sessions, APCEL&#8217;s legal experts and researchers will address topics such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What are environmental laws and their principles?<\/li>\n<li>How are international environmental laws made and implemented?<\/li>\n<li>How are national governments involved in international and national environmental lawmaking?<\/li>\n<li>How does science interact with laws?<\/li>\n<li>How Singapore is using laws and policies to solve environmental problems?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We invite all interested groups from Secondary schools, Junior Colleges, and Polytechnics to contact us. In the interests of making these workshops accessible to all, these workshops are free.<\/p>\n<p>Each 2.5-hour workshop will be held at the NUS Law Bukit Timah Campus. We accommodate a minimum of 20 students and a maximum of 50 students per session. Transportation will not be provided but chartered buses can drop visitors off at the designated drop-off point. Alternatively, visitors may choose to use public transport: alight at the Botanic Gardens station and take a 10-minute walk through the Gardens.<\/p>\n<p>Refreshments will be provided. <strong>All students and teachers are invited to bring their own reusable containers, cutlery, and cups for food and drink<\/strong>. This is in line with our commitment to environmental sustainability; single-use disposable items will not be provided.<\/p>\n<p>For more information and\/or to make arrangements for a workshop session, please contact <a href=\"mailto:lawapcel@nus.edu.sg\">lawapcel@nus.edu.sg<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/law.nus.edu.sg\/apcel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/APCEL_Separator.png\" alt=\"APCEL_Separator\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"700\" width=\"1900\" title=\"APCEL_Separator\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p><strong>Read about our previous workshops:<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/law.nus.edu.sg\/apcel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/05\/BedokSouthSec042025.jpg\" alt=\"BedokSouthSec042025\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"505\" width=\"900\" title=\"BedokSouthSec042025\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\tBedok South Secondary School<br \/>\n29 April 2025\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/law.nus.edu.sg\/apcel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/04\/Dunman-High-2025.jpg\" alt=\"Dunman High 2025\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"505\" width=\"900\" title=\"Dunman High 2025\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\tDunman High School<br \/>\n01 April 2025\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/law.nus.edu.sg\/apcel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Raffles-Institution-24.jpeg\" alt=\"Raffles Institution-24\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"505\" width=\"900\" title=\"Raffles Institution-24\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\tRaffles Institution<br \/>\n31 May 2024\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/law.nus.edu.sg\/apcel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/SAJC-24.jpeg\" alt=\"SAJC-24\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"505\" width=\"900\" title=\"SAJC-24\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\tSt Andrew&#8217;s Junior College<br \/>\n24 April 2024\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/law.nus.edu.sg\/apcel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Punggol-Sec-24.jpeg\" alt=\"Punggol Sec-24\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"505\" width=\"900\" title=\"Punggol Sec-24\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\tPunggol Secondary School<br \/>\n12 April 2024\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/law.nus.edu.sg\/apcel\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/CHIJ-Nicholas-24.jpeg\" alt=\"CHIJ Nicholas-24\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"505\" width=\"900\" title=\"CHIJ Nicholas-24\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\tCHIJ St Nicholas Girls&#8217;
