Currently a postdoctoral researcher at Tilburg Law School, Juliana de Augustinis is conducting comparative empirical legal research as part of the project on Public Interest Litigation across four jurisdictions: the Netherlands, India, South Africa, and the United States. Her doctoral studies in the Netherlands focused on the scientific dimension of lawsuits that challenge systemic governmental failures in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions to address the climate crisis. Utilizing empirical legal methods, she has analyzed courts across 14 jurisdictions, assessing the complexity, uncertainty, and reliability of evidence concerning adequate greenhouse gas mitigation and the judicial references that correlate with favorable rulings for petitioners, along with orders mandating stricter greenhouse gas reductions. Previously, she completed her Master's in International Technology Law at VU Amsterdam, graduating with honors, and has worked as a researcher at the Netherlands Institute for the Study of Crime and Law Enforcement (NSCR).
