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!

Today a new Nature’s Rights Bill was launched at the House of Lords by the Green party peer Natalie Bennett. For decades, lawyers, campaigners, and communities have worked to bring the idea of rights for Nature and legal personhood for Nature into the public imagination.
