Natasa Nedeski is Assistant Professor of Public International Law at the Amsterdam Center for International Law (ACIL). Her research interests include shared responsibility, climate change and the interface between international law and (climate) science. She is currently working on a collaborative multidisciplinary project entitled “Translating climate science for international law”. The aim of the project is to enhance our understanding of how climate science has been used, and can be used, in the development, interpretation and application of international legal rights, obligations and procedures, including litigation, that are relevant to climate change. It examines how scientific knowledge relating to climate change – including its causes, impacts, future risks and mitigation –can be incorporated into, or used by, international law.

She has co-founded a multidisciplinary platform for climate scientists and international law scholars, whom are currently engaged in academic collaboration to answer key questions at the intersection of science and international law. An important aim of this collaboration is to make lawyers better equipped to do justice to the available scientific evidence on climate change.

Nataša Nedeski has taught general courses on public international law as well as more specialized courses on international responsibility, international dispute settlement and fundamental rights. She has experience designing and coordinating courses at the bachelor and master level, supervising LL.B. and LL.M. theses and coaching the University of Amsterdam team for the Jessup International Law Moot Court competition.
