IBA Pro Bono & Access to Justice Committee Launches Clearing House Directory

As part of the recognition of the growing community of clearing houses and the increasingly important role they play in promoting and delivering pro bono assistance, the IBA Pro Bono and Access to Justice Committee has established a Clearing House Directory 'page' on its http://www.internationalprobono.com/ website with the aim of raising awareness of the work of clearing houses among both the IBA's membership and the wider pro bono community as well as making available information concerning the identities and expertise of individual clearing houses to that wider audience. It is the intention that not only will we grow the list of participating clearing houses over the months to come but that, as the site becomes established, we can develop it further, for example, by providing access to best practice materials and publicising events that members may be organising. Suggestions as to other facilities that we might be able to provide through the site are welcome.
