Sherpa carries out advocacy, strategic litigation, legal research and capacity building activities, in order to strengthen economic actors’ accountability and build up a legal framework that better protects the environment, communities and human rights. To implement these activities, Sherpa brings together lawyers, legal experts, academics and many other experts who support its action by putting forward an innovative approach to law. Through its advocacy work, Sherpa promotes a world built on the respect of human rights and the environment. We propose a vision of society in which the economy serves people and the environment. A political and social model that is more respectful of communities, ecosystems and workers.
