Online-Event "A Legal Milestone in Climate Litigation: The Saúl vs. RWE Decision"
After a decade of legal proceedings, a landmark decision has been made. On May 28, the Higher Regional Court of Hamm delivered its ruling in the case of Saúl vs. RWE— a decision that reshapes corporate accountability in the face of the climate crisis. Watch the recording of our online event which took place just hours after the court delivered its decision. Together with Saúl Luciano Lliuya, his lawyer Roda Verheyen and colleagues from Germanwatch we analyse the precedent setting judgement.
