What we do

The environmental problems we face today, such as climate change and the global demand for natural resources, are threatening the ability of vulnerable countries and communities to safeguard their environment and improve the quality of their lives.

Our expertise in international environmental law is sought by governmental, intergovernmental and nongovernmental organisations from around the world. Our work ranges from briefing and supporting  government delegations at international negotiations to advising community groups on how the law can help them to better protect their environment.

FIELD undertakes research on a wide range of issues in international law, policy and practice. We collaborate with researchers from different countries and professional backgrounds to develop creative and practical solutions.
