Law as a vehicle for social change:
Mainstreaming Non-Extractive Economic Practices (N-EXTs)
Towards a non-extractive future
Creating change
The ultimate goal of N-EXTLAW is to achieve a non-extractive, sustainable economic model. Our mission is to understand how we can rethink our legal framework to support sustainable economic practices.
In this way, law provides actions with meaning and can be used as a vehicle for social change.
Join our community
We use existing non-extractive economic practices as a starting point. This means that we are looking for partners that share our values.
We aim to set up a community of people and organizations to participate in our research. Our goal is to create concrete social change together.
