Valparaiso 2006
ELAW partners at Fiscalia del Medio Ambiente (FIMA) hosted the ELAW Annual Meeting in Valparaiso, Chile, October 23-26. The meeting brought together leading environmental advocates from 14 countries for valuable collaboration and hard work. ELAW lawyers and scientists worked together to meet emerging environmental challenges around the world: protecting the global climate, reforming international financial institutions so they protect communities and ecosystems, restoring coastal and marine ecosystems, and giving communities a voice in decisions about the environment. FIMA put on a tremendous meeting that will help lawyers protect the environment through law around the world.
