Human Rights and Climate Change
Original language description
The conference aimed to explore the application of human rights instruments in the protection against negative impacts of climate change. It covered the interlinkages between human rights and climate change, and possible barriers to using the rights-based approach to climate protection and their solutions. The objective of the conference four panel sessions was to examine the theoretical foundations for linking human rights and the climate, the human rights-based climate litigation, the re-interpretation of traditional human rights to cover climate risks, and the human rights aspects of climate justice in transition and decarbonisation policies.nnHuman Rights and Climate Change: A Short IntroductionnThe presentation introduced the fundamentals of the interlinkages between human rights and climate change.
