We were recently recognized at the UN Global Compact Awards 2023 in relation to our pro bono work in Ukraine. The UN Global Compact Partnership for Sustainability Award is an annual international campaign celebrating the best projects implemented in partnership between business, government, and civil society and is aimed at achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals, protecting the environment, solving social challenges, and promoting peace.
We were a finalist in the Partnership for Sustainability Award for “The Possible”, Ukraine – highlighting the pro bono legal support provided to Civic UK and Civic Ukraine through our HL BaSE program. Our work has enabled funds from the UK’s Save the Children Fund and Disaster’s Emergency Committee to be directed towards investment in women-led social entrepreneurs in Ukraine. We advised and drafted the agreements and policies required for Civic to make grants and loans to these entrepreneurs, many of whom are working in extremely difficult conditions.
