Call for Papers. Symposium – Future-proof Regulation (submissions by 15.05.25)

On 17 and 18 November 2025, the Dutch Research Council (NWO) will organise the ‘Future-Proof Regulation’ Symposium. The central question during this symposium will be how regulations can respond to a changing society. In a world where markets are becoming more global, technological developments are accelerating and social expectations are changing, regulators must constantly review their approach. How can we make regulation ‘future-proof’ under these circumstances so that it remains effective, legitimate, independent, reflexive and responsive?

Paper proposals can be submitted by email to l.a.fahy@uu.nl by 15-5-2025, 00:00 CET at the latest. The papers will be presented by the researchers in parallel sessions during the symposium. The paper proposals must contain the following information:

• The abstract (no more than 300 words).
• 3-5 keywords that indicate the subject, theme and scope of the research.
• The e-mail address of the co-author (if applicable)
