Register today for our 2025 Global Forum in Rome on November 11-13 at the Hotel Villa Pamphili.
Our theme this year is Amplifying Impact: Pro Bono & Public Interest Law in a Shifting World. With this guiding principle in mind, we’ll explore innovative solutions, collaborate, and move the dial on access to justice.
Each year, the PILnet Global Forum brings together lawyers, in-house counsel, and bar associations with representatives of civil society and academia from around the world to discuss how to best use pro bono and public interest lawyering to support nonprofit and civic organizations, and build more just, sustainable societies.
If you are new to the Forum or were not able to attend last year, catch up on the insightful conversations we had in Bangkok with these selected session recordings and highlights.
We are now accepting session proposals for the 2025 PILnet Global Forum. We don’t just want your ideas for sessions, we want you to take full ownership and create, organize, and facilitate a Forum session so that you play an integral role in shaping the conversations at the Forum. At the Forum, we strive to exchange knowledge of best practices using the law to support civil society with the goal to spark new ideas or develop projects and partnerships.
Become a sponsor of the 2025 PILnet Forum. For more information, please email [email protected].
The PILnet Global Forum highlighted that the need for pro bono is rising and so is the need for new, innovative ways to deliver these services to enhance access to justice globally.

I’ve attended the PILnet Forum for many years and each year I come away with a new insight and connection. It is a unique space bringing together a global community with the common aim of improving access to justice through the power of pro bono.
