The Environment Defenders Office (EDO) is a community legal service that specialises in public interest environmental law, and assists people to access and utilise the law to defend the environment right across Victoria.
Planning and development initiators and decision-makers are usually far better resourced than community members who oppose decisions and actions on environment protection grounds. We aim to close this gap by providing the legal expertise that harnesses the passion and drive of the people "on the ground", who are all too often deterred or excluded by the complexity of the law.
However, our funding is limited and the need is vast. We rely greatly on the support of members and donors who recognise the importance of access to justice for all members of the community. With your assistance the EDO can continue to work to protect the environment for our future.
Funds are used to improve services through staffing and operations. Your donation will greatly assist us to:
