Seminar on Mortgage Law and Sustainable Housing at the Faculty of Law
The Faculty of Law hosted yesterday the seminar “Homes, Markets, and Rights,” which examined mortgage systems and sustainable housing policies in Europe, the U.S., and Taiwan, with the active participation of students from the Master’s in European Integration.
Yesterday, the session “Homes, Markets, and Rights: Transatlantic Perspectives on Mortgage Law and Sustainable Housing” took place in the Faculty of Law’s Boardroom. The event saw strong participation from students of the Master’s in European Integration (MUIE).
The session was led by Yi-sheng Liu, an independent consultant from Taiwan, and Thomas Wilson, a professor at the McKinney School of Law (Indiana). They offered a comparative analysis of mortgage systems and housing policies in the U.S., Taiwan, and Europe. The discussion highlighted current challenges in ensuring sustainable access to housing and protecting citizens’ rights in increasingly strained markets.
The activity fostered a highly enriching exchange with the students, who reflected on the legal, economic, and social implications of these transatlantic models.
