Renée Robinson

Renée Ramona Robinson is a Jamaican-American, but French trained lawyer. She matriculated from Johns Hopkins university for her undergraduate, before continuing to on to graduate cum laude and with merit from Sciences Po and Queen Mary Law School respectively. She will receive her LL.M from Harvard Law School in May 2025. She is a current third-year PhD candidate at Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne in the School of Law. Her research centers on the paradoxical schism of public and private international law impacting the global value chain in the fashion and textile industry, and conversely, how the fashion industry informs the legal processes that construct it. It is focused on the elements of worker rights, environmental litigation, and consumer behaviour, and how these are molded by property rights and analyzed by strands of feminist legal theory. She has previously presented at the London College of Fashion Symposium on “Multiple Experiences in Fashion,” as well as at Tampere University, in Tampere, Finland on fashion related to the climate emergency.
