This first course focuses on the international legal framework related to the climate crisis and its impact on human rights, where participants will understand the law framework for environmental injustices and promote climate justice. If you want to know how to step into action, do not miss our other course available in UDEMY called “Climate Action: Advisory Opinions and more”.

This joint effort from FIMA ONG and the Center for Environmental Law (CDA) of the University of Chile offers a comprehensive view of how law and policy can be key tools for achieving climate justice. Through the classes leading environmental law academics will highlight the crucial role of international courts in clarifying legal obligations, and the responsibility of states in protecting human rights, offering a roadmap for addressing the challenges of climate change in a just and sustainable manner, promoting social equity, economic inclusion, and environmental protection.

If you still want to learn more about this, we strongly encourage you to read the book “State Responsibilities in the Climate Crisis: Legal Standards and Global Litigation” edited by Ezio Costa Cordella and Pilar Moraga Sariego with the remarkable participation of scholars and practitioners around the globe, that is available online for free.
