Hong Kong Pro Bono Roundtable

PILnet serves as the Secretariat of the Hong Kong Pro Bono Roundtable, which was created to connect, activate, and coordinate pro bono lawyers in Hong Kong to maximize the impact of their efforts, such as mobilizing legal services, organizing joint interventions, and building a pro bono community. A longtime participant, PILnet leads the coordination of the Roundtable to help steer it toward becoming a vehicle for more substantive action, collaboration, and information sharing.

The Roundtable’s network represents more than 80 institutions, including a substantial number of the global law firms who have a presence in Hong Kong, as well as local law firms, in-house legal teams, barristers, law schools, and NGOs. The group meets once per quarter, with a steering committee coordinating the meetings. Each meeting lasts for 1.5 hours, and includes a substantive topic, practice pointers, and group discussions. We aim to meet in person in Hong Kong, and to provide an option to join virtually where possible.

We welcome all legal professionals who are interested in pro bono and are looking for ways to actively participate. Pro bono coordinators or managers are also welcome to join. Interested lawyers and legal professionals can request to join by clicking the button below.
