The PILS Project

Intersections between Human Rights and Climate Justice

Published on 18 November 2022 Organised by The PILS Project to celebrate UK Pro Bono Week 2022, this webinar looked at the developing area of rights-based climate litigation.

Pro bono lawyers have a vital role to play in climate justice cases, particularly where those cases impact marginalised communities whose access to justice is impaired or restricted.

PILS were joined on 8 November 2022 by a panel of speakers to discuss the different ways in which human rights intersect with climate justice - and how pro bono lawyers in Northern Ireland can make a difference!

Speakers:
Laura Neal, Friends of the Earth NI;
Paul Clark, Garden Court Chambers;
Sinéad Magner, WEDO;
Hilary Perry and Kate Barry (facilitators), The PILS Project
