SABER
Student Advocates for Business and Environmental Responsibility
OUR VISION
SABER is a student group at the Lewis & Clark Law School in Portland, Oregon. SABER is dedicated to promoting collaboration between environmental advocacy groups, governmental agencies and the business sector, in order to recognize the role each stakeholder plays in resolving issues pertinent to all. We strive for balance among stakeholders’ views.
We believe that the most effective long-term solutions can be achieved through a cooperative process. Attorneys can facilitate this process, ensuring that the basic goals of all parties are met within the legal framework.
