CIEL provides information
on biodiversity-related legal issues in response to requests from activists
and environmental lawyers in other countries. CIEL has also worked
on building capacity and sharing skills in developing countries and countries
with economies in transition such as Bulgaria and Uzbekistan. In the
United States, CIEL advocates for governmental laws and policies consistent
with the Biodiversity Convention, working in part through the Biodiversity
Action Network (BIONET), a network of NGOs that CIEL launched in 1993
in cooperation with the Sierra Club and other US environmental groups. |
