Mission Statement
Corporate Accountability Lab unleashes the creative potential of the law to protect people and the planet from corporate abuse.
About This Cause
CAL was founded in response to the crisis of widespread corporate abuse of human rights and the environment and disappearing legal tools to hold corporations accountable. In the midst of this ongoing crisis, public interest lawyers and the broader social justice community are too often overburdened with work using existing tools and lack the time, resources, and space to come up with creative strategies for broad impact. CAL aims to change that. We research and map human rights violations and the many actors involved. To develop ideas that work, CAL focuses on truly understanding the many facets of a problem involving corporate abuse of rights. We use our unique human-centered design process to innovate and develop new legal strategies. This process allows us and our partners to come to the table with a problem or question--be it working with a community that has tried legal options that are not working, or figuring out how a particular statute might work for people rather than corporations -- and gives us a process by which we can dig in and get creative, coming out on the other side with new solutions. CAL does this work in collaboration with partners and allies across the globe. From our legal interns to our Brain Trust, and from local activists to advisers, and to supporters like you, it takes all of us to protect people and the planet from corporate abuse.
