J&E in Estonia
The Estonian Environmental Law Center (EELC) is a non-profit non-governmental environmental law organization whose purpose is to create, collect, disseminate and use expert knowledge on environmental law, in order to enhance development of environmental law and quality of environmental decisions of different levels as well as environmental legislation.
EELC was established by 3 public interest environmental lawyers and an environmental NGO Estonian Fund for Nature (ELF) in November 2007 – in fact, EELC is continuing environmental law activities, carried out by ELF in previous years (see www.elfond.ee).
EELC is starting its own activities only from January 2008. These activities will involve legal analyses in field of environmental law, collection and dissemination of information on environmental law (including webpage on environmental law), trainings about environmental law, environmental legal service and participation in environmental legislative processes and other environmental decision-making processes.
