Crypto Altruism Podcast Episode 130 - No Impunity - Defending human rights through decentralized impact litigation
In episode 130, we’re excited to welcome Aurélia Le frapper, Co-Founder of No Impunity, an incredible movement that uses Web3 tools to unlock the potential of litigation funding to support victims of corporate human rights abuse and environmental damage in their fight for justice. We discuss how they’re using blockchain to bring greater accessibility and transparency to impact litigation funding, using Web3 to coordinate global action, using DAOs to engage the community in impact litigation, and more.
Three Key Takeaways
Blockchain can help bring much needed transparency and traceability to impact litigation, helping ensure its fairer and more equitable by making it easier to see where the funds are going and who is involved, and to help protect from bad actors.
Web3 tools can be used to help make impact litigation investing more accessible. Through tokenization, investment opportunities can be fractionalized, bringing down the cost to participate, while also giving more voting power to the impacted communities to ensure they can shape their own destiny.
Successful Web3 projects take a multidisciplinary approach involving diverse stakeholders and communities. No Impunity is looking to grow its movement by recruiting ambassadors from a variety of backgrounds including lawyers, artists, thought leaders, NGOs, tech companies, and DAOs.
