Given the complex threats they face, legal defense for climate defenders must be a fundamental strategy to address the climate crisis. 

Funders are responding to the threats.

But without increased support, climate defenders will be silenced.

Governments and fossil fuel companies have deep benches of lawyers to intimidate and silence climate defenders. We need to build and deploy our own bench to protect them.

CliDef works with aligned funders to help pay for the legal support climate defenders need, and recruits lawyers and legal NGOs to leverage their expertise in defense of climate defenders.
