Prof. Oren Perez (LLB, LLM), dean of BIU’s Faculty of Law and head of the MA program in Environmental Regulation and Policy, received his PhD from the London School of Economics and Political Science. He primarily researches environmental regulation, transnational law, legal theory and e-democracy, and as the founder and academic director of the Environmental Regulation Clinic, he takes part in its proactive efforts to promote environmental justice and sustainable development. In late 2019, Prof. Perez established the BIU LawData Lab, BIU Innovation Lab for Law, Data-Science and Digital Ethics, laying the foundation for broad interdisciplinary data-driven legal research collaborations within BIU, including BINA, as well as externally with tech companies and governmental institutions. The LawData Lab also collaborates internationally with its counterpart, The Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence on Digital Governance. “Working closely together with BINA’s faculty, we are seeking to establish a smart, data-driven process of risk assessment and management” 35
