Landmark Chambers and the International Lawyers Project’ hybrid seminar – Legal Remedies and Tools to Address Just Transition Challenges took place on Wednesday 6 November 2024.
The International Lawyers Project (ILP) is an alliance of talented and passionate lawyers drawn from diverse countries and cultures across the globe. We advance economic and environmental justice and the rule of law through the provision of pro bono legal expertise to civil society, communities, and governments. We have assisted NGOs, civil society groups, grassroots and indigenous communities advocate for protection and conservation of biodiversity and natural resources through legal advice for regulatory reforms, strategic litigation advice and provision of capacity building for indigenous communities to empower them to fight for their human and environmental rights.
ILP, in partnership with Landmark Chambers, will bring together experts and advocates from the UK to discuss how different legal remedies and tools around the world can be used to address just transition challenges, which include holding governments and corporations accountable for environmental harms and advocating for policies that not only mitigate climate risks but also promote social justice. Indeed, the shift towards a green economy should be inclusive and equitable, ensuring that economic, social, and environmental considerations are balanced and that the voices of the most vulnerable are heard and heeded.
Speakers included opening remarks by Lucy Claridge (International Lawyers Project), Maria Cristina Mundin (International Lawyers Project), Robert Allen (Simmons and Simmons), Jackson Shaa (Narasha Community Development Group), Satya Jeremie – moderator (Landmark Chambers), Natasha Jackson (Landmark Chambers) and Alex Shattock (Landmark Chambers).
