Charlie Holt

Charlie Holt is the European lead for Global Climate Legal Defense (CliDef) and a member of the Coalition Against Slapps in Europe (Case). He has been vocal about the rising trend of strategic lawsuits against public participation (SLAPPs), which he argues have detrimental effects on individual activists and the broader democratic process, stifling accountability and information dissemination about powerful entities. Holt's insights highlight the challenges faced by activists in a polarized society increasingly dominated by corporate interests.
