In this episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Naomi Neilson is joined by Australian National University (ANU) student and GreenLaw’s head of community Emma Bryant to discuss the wellbeing program behind the young person-led organisation and her role in creating initiatives to engage and connect with all its members.

Given the work that GreenLaw does, Emma explains that it can often feel “doom and gloom”, with members often left holding the weight of the impending climate crisis. In a safe space under the initiative, members are given the opportunity to go over topics like eco-anxiety and recognise when they might be feeling burnt out.

The episode also touches on what GreenLaw has already achieved in its short history and what it has planned for the future. Off this, Emma shares some tips on how young and aspiring lawyers with an interest in climate change can get involved.

There’s also some exciting news about GreenLaw’s new independence from ANU and how it plans to continue working with the university going forward.
