A webinar presented by the IBA Law Firm Management Committee's ESG Subcommittee

Today’s increasingly tumultuous environment – including the Russia/Ukraine and the Israel/Gaza wars, the rise of global powers such as China and Russia, the climate crisis and the concerns and opportunities presented by artificial intelligence – have led to a dramatic shift in the geopolitical landscape.

More than ever, law firms have important, strategic decisions to make, across areas such as:

• taking a stand/making a statement on an issue;

• actions to take or not to take as a firm;

• clients to represent or those not to;

• stakeholder engagement;

• the expectations of talent/new recruits;

• politics versus business decisions; and

• transparency.

This webinar will offer timely discussion of the expectations and challenges in terms of ESG for lawyers and their firms/companies, given today’s rapidly changing world.
