Whatever the course of action taken, it will call for resources and the involvement of others. For this, it is recommended that you use resources that facilitate the intended social and political change and collaboration with like-minded organizations that may join you in deciding and taking the appropriate action.
Legal action calls for the engagement of lawyers as well as experts on the issues being litigated. Some resources provide access to organizations and lawyers across the world who, as concerned members of the legal community, are committed to providing assistance and taking action to uphold human rights and protect the environment.
