Kudun and Partners is honored to host the “Championing Pro Bono Roundtable” on November 12, 2024, in collaboration with TrustLaw, the Thomson Reuters Foundation, PILnet, and co-sponsor Tilleke & Gibbins, as part of the Access to Justice Exchange at our office. Emi Rowse, our partner overseeing pro bono efforts, represented Kudun and Partners, sharing her insights and experiences in advancing impactful pro bono work.
The roundtable brought together over 50 legal professionals, including pro bono consultants, counsel from global law firms, and in-house legal teams from all around the world, to explore the future of pro bono work in Thailand. The event served as a meaningful platform for fostering a legal community committed to social impact, as participants shared best practices, explored practical solutions, and addressed challenges to empower firms in expanding their pro bono initiatives.
