Dr. Karen Hulme is a senior
lecturer in the School of Law at the University of Essex. Karen studied
LL.B. Law at the University of Nottingham and decided to specialise in
the area of public international law. She achieved her Masters in Public
International law also at Nottingham. Karen joined the law school at
Essex in 1997 as a Doctoral student and has particular interests in
environmental law and the laws of war. Karen was awarded a doctorate in
2002 for her thesis on the protection of the environment in times of
armed conflict. Her book entitled, ‘War Torn Environment: Interpreting
the Legal Threshold’ won the American Society of International Law’s
Francis Lieber Prize for 2004 for ‘outstanding scholarship in the field
of the law of armed conflict’.
Karen has taught on the following modules: public international law,
international law of armed conflict, law of evidence, tort law,
constitutional law, as well as human rights and the environment. Karen
also teaches on the inter-disciplinary postgraduate MA/MSc degree in
Environmental Governance: The Natural World, Science and Society.
Karen’s research interests include protection of the environment via
human rights law and humanitarian law, as well as international law more
generally. One research focus is the protection of environmental
resources during armed conflict – particularly conflict resources such
as minerals and timber.
