Tenth Annual Target Report and Public Discussion Paper: The Target At Ten Years
The 10th Annual Report of the National Pro Bono Aspirational Target was launched last week.
Over the ten-year life of the Target, Australian lawyers have reported doing over 2.86 million hours of pro bono legal work, helping disadvantaged people and the organisations that support them.
11,795 Australian lawyers provided a total of 420,195 hours of pro bono legal services in FY2017. The Report, with key figures and analysis, is available on our website.
Together with the 10th Annual Target Report, the Centre has released a Public Discussion Paper — The Target at Ten Years — which invites comment on key elements on the Target.
