Description/notes
AIDA uses the law and science to protect the environment and communities suffering from environmental harm, primarily in Latin America. AIDA is the only regional organization of environmental legal experts who are both from and in Latin America. We use the power of international law to create sustainable solutions throughout the region.
AIDA combines legal advocacy with education and alliance-building initiatives. We prioritize high-need, high-impact cases that can set replicable precedents. We propose feasible paths of action, provide legal language officials can adopt, and disseminate information on pending proposals. We also support our partners’ efforts by injecting arguments based on international law into advocacy and litigation.
