The Environmental Defenders Office (NT) Inc. is a public interest community legal centre practising environmental law.

We offer legal services to individuals and groups who want to protect the natural and built environment and who can’t afford private legal assistance. We also conduct community education programs about environmental law and seek reform of environmental laws where appropriate.

Our services promote public participation in environmental decision making and we recognise the importance of Aboriginal involvement in protection of the environment.

We are part of a national network of EDOs working to protect the environment in the public interest. EDO NT has been helping people use the law to protect the environment since the 1990's.

We produce factsheets and regular newsletters. EDO NT is driven and supported by its members. As a non-profit society, the EDO relies on donations to carry out public interest legal work. Our members gain insight to complex environmental issues while helping to influence the Territory's environmental future in a positive, constructive manner.
