### New for 2026: GAIL Launches Dedicated In‑House Group

The Global Alliance of Impact Lawyers (GAIL) announces the launch of our new In‑House Group, created to support and connect in-house counsel who are driving impact law from within their organisations.

In-house lawyers sit at the centre of how organisations make decisions – across governance, risk, contracts, supply chains and capital allocation – and are uniquely placed to use legal skills to drive positive impact. 

GAIL’s dedicated working group is designed to strengthen the offering for in-house counsel through a listening-led programme of peer connection, practical tools and shared “impact from within” stories. 

Kick-off calls take place during March 2026, bringing together in‑house practitioners from around the world to shape the group’s priorities and programming for the year ahead.

If you’re an in-house lawyer looking to achieve impact through your work, we’d love to hear from you.
