Past Roundtables

2024 Q1 Asia Pro Bono Roundtable on “Pro Bono in Times of Crisis”

Background and Consortium information: These Asia Regional Pro Bono Roundtables began in 2020, and were built on the regional collaborative work we have been doing together for years. They focus on ways and means to utilise Pro Bono as a means to greater achieve access to justice and strengthen Rule of Law. They do so in a variety of ways, including focusing on specific Pro Bono related initiatives, as well as Pro Bono processes. Our Consortium currently consists of a number of organizations engaged in the strengthening and expanding of Pro Bono, within the Asia region and globally, including iProbono, Pro Bono SG (formerly Law Society Pro Bono Service [Singapore]), PILnet, BABSEACLE, TrustLaw (Thomson Reuters Foundation), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), GongGam, The Legal Empowerment Network, International Bridges to Justice, The Global Pro Bono Bar Association, the Center for Reproductive Rights, A4ID, Australian Pro Bono Centre, Pro Bono Week Collaboration, and the Centre for Law and Transformative Change.
