A Just and Rights-Based Framework for Nature

A Just and Rights-Based Framework for Nature

Published 4 years, 10 months ago
Description
International negotiations concerning our environment such as on climate and biodiversity, often put the scientific case behind economic and political interests, with potentially disastrous consequences.

What does that mean for human prosperity and even survival?

Can the tension between science, policy and diplomacy be resolved? What would a new form of environmental justice that internalised nature within economic and social rights look like?

A lecture by Jacqueline McGlade, 27 April
