Tulane Environmental Law & Policy Summit

Since 1996, the Tulane Environmental Law & Policy Summit (TELS) has promoted dialogue between generations of students, attorneys, academics, and activists regarding the most pressing environmental law issues facing the Gulf South and beyond.

Held annually in New Orleans, TELS brings together legal scholars, practitioners, activists, and community leaders to address pressing environmental issues such as climate change, environmental justice, and disaster resilience. Entirely student-run and free to the public, it has been recognized by the American Bar Association as the top student-led environmental law conference.
