Give me a lever and a place to stand, and I can move the world.
Archimedes (c. 287 – c. 212 BC)
Law and policy are powerful tools for transforming the world, but they must be used fairly, effectively and efficiently. Serova works to identify strategic levers: cost-effective measures that can have outsized impacts on our planet. Through research, awareness-raising and legal support, we use these levers to fight climate change, protect biodiversity and work towards a more sustainable planet.
