Our Products & Services for third sector clients
The need for effective environmental policies has never been greater. We empower our third sector clients to pioneer environmental policy making at every level. By providing legal insight, strategic guidance, and advocacy support, we help non-governmental organizations, charities, and grassroots movements succeed in shaping environmental policies at national, EU, and international levels. The services we offer to our third sector clients range from public policy consulting to project development & implementation, from training and capacity building to public speaking and the organisation of knowledge events. This includes:
- Expert Opinions & Insights: With a deep understanding of environmental law and policy, we offer the third sector invaluable legal expertise through our expert opinions and insights. This involves reviewing international agreements, EU law and national legislation, and relevant case law to understand the legal framework governing environmental issues. This may also involve proposing amendments, or advocacy strategies for new regulations.
- EU Policy Engagement: Engaging with EU institutions and representatives is vital for shaping environmental policy across Member States. We offer comprehensive support to the third sector in navigating the EU policy landscape. From tracking and analyzing EU directives and regulations to facilitating participation in public consultations and expert working groups, we enable organizations to actively contribute to the EU's environmental agenda. By harnessing the power of coalitions and networking opportunities, we help the third sector build influential alliances to drive their environmental policy objectives forward.
- National-Level Advocacy: At the national level, we collaborate closely with organizations within the third sector to develop tailored strategies for influencing environmental policy making. By conducting thorough research and analysis, we identify key decision-makers, stakeholders, and avenues for engagement. Through effective lobbying, advocacy campaigns, and partnerships, we empower the third sector to effectively advocate for environmental priorities, help secure funding, and drive legislative change.
- International Collaboration: Environmental challenges extend beyond national borders, demanding coordinated global action. We recognize the importance of international engagement in shaping environmental policy. Through strategic partnerships and collaboration, we assist the third sector in participating effectively at the international level providing legal and policy advice, conducting research, and representing our clients’ interests in relevant forums and negotiations.
- Advocacy Campaigns: we help NGOs design and implement effective advocacy campaigns to raise awareness, build coalitions, and influence decision-makers. This includes crafting compelling messages, engaging with the media, organizing events, and leveraging digital platforms to amplify the NGO's voice.
- Legal Advocacy Support: When necessary, we provide legal advocacy support by preparing legal briefs and conducting legal research. This may involve challenging decisions or regulations that have adverse environmental impacts or advocating for stricter enforcement of existing environmental laws.
- Monitoring and Compliance: We assist NGOs in monitoring the implementation of environmental regulations and ensuring compliance by relevant stakeholders. This includes assessing the effectiveness of policies, tracking enforcement actions, and identifying instances of non-compliance. By doing so, NGOs can advocate for stronger enforcement measures and contribute to the development of more effective environmental policies.
- Capacity Building: To empower NGOs and enhance their effectiveness, we provide training sessions and workshops on competition and antitrust law, international trade & investment law, biodiversity, and circular economy. By equipping NGOs with a better understanding of these legal frameworks, they can navigate complex issues more effectively and contribute to shaping robust environmental policies. Our offer includes delivering educational materials on topics such as circular economy, biodiversity conservation, and international trade law.
- Stakeholder Engagement: Engaging with relevant stakeholders, such as government agencies, industry representatives, and international organizations, is essential for driving change. We assist NGOs in developing targeted engagement strategies to foster collaboration, build alliances, and influence decision-makers. This may include preparing position papers, attending meetings, and participating in public hearings on behalf of the NGO. We also organise and help facilitate workshops, knowledge events and roundtable discussions.
- Coalition Building: To amplify the NGO's voice and influence, we assist in building strategic alliances and coalitions with other NGOs, civil society organizations, industry stakeholders, and academics working on similar issues. By fostering collaborations, the NGO can enhance its advocacy efforts, share resources and expertise, and collectively push for policy changes.

How the unique characteristics of the camel empower third sector strategies
Camels possess unique characteristics that can serve as an inspiration for third sector organizations involved in environmental protection, laws, and policies. Here is how:
Adaptability
Camels are well-known for their remarkable ability to adapt and survive in extreme environments, such as deserts. Similarly, environmental organizations often face challenging and dynamic situations while working to protect the environment. Like camels, these organizations need to be flexible, resilient, and adaptable in order to effectively respond to changing circumstances and achieve their goals.
Long-term vision
Camels have historically played a significant role in the economies and cultures of arid regions. Their value extends beyond their immediate usefulness, as they provide transportation, food, and materials for local communities. Taking a long-term perspective and recognizing the interconnectedness of environmental issues with societal well-being enables the development of sustainable solutions that benefit both the environment and communities.
Resilience
Camels are known for their resilience and ability to endure harsh conditions, such as extreme heat, scarcity of food, and long-distance travel. Environmental challenges can often be complex and daunting, requiring perseverance and determination to bring about meaningful change. By emulating the camel’s resilience, these organizations can stay committed to their goals despite obstacles and setbacks.
