Advocates around the world know they can call on us for the help they need. Every
year, citizen lawyers call on us for help with hundreds of efforts to protect communities
and the environment. By empowering grassroots lawyers, we help win victories and
build a worldwide corps of strong advocates for the environment.
We all share a single planet, and we must build bridges across borders. At ELAW,
we are proud to work with courageous advocates all over the world. We are thrilled to
welcome these advocates to Eugene, where we will learn from them, they will inspire
us, and we will work together to craft a greener future.
1. Prevent pollution and challenge environmental abuses
2. Protect our global climate
3. Strengthen and enforce laws protecting the environment
4. Help citizens speak out for communities and the environment
At ELAW, we believe that grassroots attorneys working in their home countries are
key to building a sustainable future. That’s why we always work with committed local
partners.
