Winston & Strawn is proud to be a participating law firm supporting Advocates for International Development’s (A4ID) launch of the SDG Legal Initiative Platform.
Backed by lawyers and for lawyers, the SDG Legal Initiative harnesses the collective power of the legal profession. It commits to sharing knowledge and best practices on how the law can contribute toward the United Nations’ sustainable development goals (SDGs). By doing so, legal professionals are enabled to take action to end poverty, protect the planet, and secure peace and prosperity around the world. The initiative is a space that encourages constructive collaboration within the legal sector and that supports building communities of practice for anyone engaged in or concerned with the law, justice, and international development.
“Winston is proud to support A4ID’s SDG Legal Initiative Platform, as it is a vital step in corralling the collective power of law firms to help advance the United Nations’ sustainable development goals. Sustainability has been a priority of Winston’s pro bono and CSR efforts, and we are fully committed to assisting our clients and communities meet these objectives,” said Greg McConnell Winston’s Senior Pro Bono Counsel and SDG Legal Initiative steering committee member.
