Our Work
We have developed 3 pillars to our legal services:
Our work collaborates with local lawyers, whenever possible. Local lawyers understand their national legal systems well and by educating them in conservation law we hope to bring about social change.
As much as we can, we work with lawyers from the country we are analysing: not only because they are better placed than anyone else to understand their legal systems, but also because we believe that educating local lawyers in conservation laws is a way of bringing social change.

- Capacity Building
We work with organisations to help them understand the basics of the laws applicable to their needs. We work with scientific organisations, NGOs, and conservation organisations.
Projects: Conservation Litigation, Birds through a Legal Lens (BiLL), Wildlife Illegal Trade and Law (WITAL)
- Enforcement Gaps
We provide desk-based legal research on the implementation and enforcement of laws that could be applicable in conservation issues, especially wildlife trade related laws. We look at wildlife related crimes as well as other aspects of law such as financial crimes, corruption, administrative penalties, and liability when applicable. Strengthening our research, we analyse case law when available, as this is an important indicator of how laws are being enforced in one country.
Projects: Conservation Litigation, Birds through a Legal Lens (BiLL)
- Customised Legal Solutions
Together with conservation organisations, we analyse their goals and strive to find alternative legal pathways in the countries they work. We assist NGOs as well as scientific organizations.
