About Firefly Association
The Firefly Association for Civil Enforcement (NGO) was established in 2024 to create a turning point in Israel’s poor ecological and human health conditions. This is done through the use of civil litigation, by filing class action lawsuits in the fields of public health and environmental law.
The Association’s Modes of Action
- A seven-month in-depth training program for 25 lawyers who will serve as agents of change in the fields of environment and public health. The training encompasses legal aspects and provides a deep foundation in the in the key areas of focus for the association, such as public health, epidemiology, nature conservation, agroecology, climate change and more.
- Initiating, supporting, and funding 50 class action lawsuits within the first four years, in areas of significant public health and environmental impact. A critical mass of lawsuits, accompanied by professional and evidence-based expert opinions, is essential to create legal precedents, shift public and legal discourse, and generate deterrence.
- Establishment of a center for applied research and knowledge on environmental civil enforcement, aimed at initiating applied research and making its findings accessible as a foundation for regulatory and legal decision-making.
The association’s activities are funded by donations.
