Hogan Lovells partner, Jonathan Baird, and senior associate, Iris Sauvagnac, formed part of the judging panel for the 'Climate Pioneer' category, which was awarded to The Carbon Literacy Project. The Carbon Literacy Project are a fantastic organisation who offer carbon literacy training to citizens to help them understand how climate change will affect them, and what they can do to lower their carbon footprint.
Participating in the judging panel for the ‘Climate Pioneer’ category at the NatWest SE100 Awards as part of my pro bono commitment at Hogan Lovells has been an enriching experience. It allowed me to learn about the work of social enterprises tackling climate change. I was impressed by how these enterprises use simple tools to achieve significant impact and reach. This experience has given me a deeper understanding of the social enterprise sector and its role in advancing environmental solutions.
Iris Sauvagnac, Senior Associate
