esela - The legal network for social impact
Who we are
An international network of people who are reshaping legal systems and practice for good
esela is a non-profit global alliance of lawyers, advisors, academics and entrepreneurs. Our members are working to create a sustainable and inclusive economy that promotes positive social impact.
We are interested in the role of the law and lawyers in reshaping legal systems and practice for good through impact investing, social entrepreneurship, business and human rights, the response of business to the climate emergency, 'profit with purpose' and related disciplines.
Our aim is to promote a better understanding of the law in these practice areas, and so to support the development and growth of a more sustainable and inclusive economy.

About #eselaVC21
Our annual gathering took place in a virtual setting, from 8 -31 March 2021. The event brought together like-minded law firms, lawyers, investors, entrepreneurs, academics, advisors and policy makers to examine how the law is being used to create positive social and environmental impact around the world.
Delegates joined to learn about the new sustainable and inclusive forms of capitalism which are emerging – and how you can play your part in this transition. Members can view the recordings of the sessions.
