Closing the gap between climate law and climate action.
Who We Are
Our mission
The Climate Law Accelerator (CLX) is a global hub advancing innovative legal research, education, and action to address the climate emergency.
Our Approach
What we do
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time, and its burdens are not shared equally. As vulnerable communities experience climate change first and worst, we prioritize them through:
01
Action-oriented research
We analyze underdeveloped areas of climate law, create resources, and support legalprocesses to inform policy, litigation, and advocacy.
02
Education as public good
We train students to become the next generation of climate-minded lawyers and createeducational tools for the field.
03
Cross-discipline connection
We foster communities of practice and forge bridges between climate law and otherfields of law, science, and policy.
Who We Are
Our team
As a program of the Earth Rights Research and Action (TERRA) Program at NYU School of Law, CLX’s core team is comprised of TERRA attorneys and scholars and further supported by affiliated practitioners and scholars.
