Our Partner Schools
PEJC, in partnership with law schools in Visayas and Mindanao, has established five environmental law clinics with the goal to develop specialist expertise in energy, environmental and climate law in the Philippines, and train the next generation of lawyers. Supported by international legal charity ClientEarth, we are working to strengthen environmental rule of law, so that citizens, civil society, and the legal community have the tools they need to secure a safe climate for Filipino communities.
What the clinics do?
- • Peer learning among the legal community
- • Connect senior environmental lawyers with law students
- • Scope and pursue strategic legal interventions
- • Establish climate and environmental justice desks
- • Engage in policy development to strengthen laws and regulations
- • Raise awareness of citizens' rights.
