Are you looking for a quick, easy way to get involved with TCLP?
The activities below are ideal for those who are short on time but keen to contribute their industry expertise, legal or language skills.
Updates, improvement, adaptation and translation are all invaluable to maximising the impact of published TCLP material.
Net Zero Amendments
Can you help raise the net zero ambition of our model clauses and Glossary terms to help us create our ‘Net Zero Toolkit’ for 2021? If you would like to help, follow the steps below:
- Read our Net Zero Explainer.
- Check the Net Zero Clause Amendment Gallery and Glossary Amendment Gallery to see which clauses or Glossary terms need amending, their net zero ambition ratings and review notes.
- Register your interest using this form, to let us know what you are working on.
- Review the clause (and accompanying user manual) or Glossary term and read the accompanying net zero review notes.
- Save a copy of the Amendments and Translations Template or the Glossary Amendments Template (as relevant) to draft (collaboratively if part of a team) your proposed updates.
- Submit your work using the Clause or Glossary Update Submission Form.
No prior experience or specific practice expertise is required, but you may wish to attend a community call to see how we analyse clauses using our Net Zero Dashboard.
Adaptation
