How can you use law to fight for nature’s rights and transform humanity’s relationships with other beings and the planet? Find out by participating in this 2-day, innovative, interactive, intensive, online learning experience as courageous “Warrior Lawyers,” Indigenous legal knowledge holders and other inspiring leaders share their stories of advancing “Green Rights” through (or sometimes despite) law. You will learn about the global rights of nature movement, explore rights of nature laws on paper and in action, discover strategies for enforcing nature’s rights, and participate in a rights of nature mock trial. 

This innovative learning program mobilizes the power of stories to bring issues of environmental rights and justice to life and inspire you to act.
