Coordinated pro bono efforts between law firms and NGOs can drive meaningful impact for the environment and communities, but these cooperations are not without challenges.
At the PILnet Global Forum 2025 session titled: Climate Pro Bono Collaborations: Lessons Learned and the Path Forward, pro bono lawyers and NGO representatives explored the successes, challenges, and practical strategies of collaborative
legal action addressing the climate crises.
We hope the recording of this discussion will be useful to others working in this space, offering practical insights and examples drawn from real collaborations, as well as reflections on what has worked, what hasn’t, and what to keep in mind when building effective pro bono partnerships on climate issues.
