Lawyers for Nature is primarily a volunteer-based organisation, however recently, we gratefully received funding which allows us to focus on our Rights of Nature and Nature-based Corporate Governance objectives. It’s a very exciting time for the organisation as we seek to progress these cutting-edge legal fields. It also means that we’re hiring for a Research Assistant with an interest in Lawyers for Nature, our mission, and this new fully-funded workstream.
Are you or someone you know interested in this role? Want to work with a progressive, inclusive and remote organisation that cares about real change in defence of the natural world. If the answer is yes, we want to know. Please check this job description, upload a CV and cover letter via this Google form, and a member of the LFN team will be in touch. You can also help in our search to find the right person for the role, by sharing our Twitter and LinkedIn posts, or simply share this page. Thank you!

The concept of Rights of Nature challenges the way many human beings see the world, a mindset of the natural environment being seen, either actively or passively, as a commodity to be dominated and exploited for the sake of profit or consumption. This idea is deeply encoded in global institutions, including our anthropocentric legal systems. Rights of Nature proposes a shift in our way of thinking about the complex interrelations between humans and nature.
