Terralex advances climate justice in Africa through three core pillars—litigation, ecological reparations, and just transition—combining legal action, advocacy, and accountability to drive equitable and lasting environmental change.
Coined from Terra (Latin for Planet) and Lex (Law), TerrAlex Africa means Planet Earth Law. We are a collective of African advocates, researchers, and legal practitioners dedicated to ensuring that the promises of international climate treaties translate into protections for people and ecosystems on the ground.

TerrAlex Africa is a Pan-African advocacy and litigation initiative. We use the law to confront ecological injustice, drive treaty enforcement, and demand reparations for communities most affected by climate change. We seek to use Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL), Pan-African ecopolitics, and the Ubuntu philosophy, among other African-based instruments, to navigate the terrain of global ecopolitics, climate negotiations, finance & norm setting.
