Climate change and environmental justice
For years, The United Nations along with institutions and NGOs engaged in climate research, mitigation work and advocacy have worked to build awareness and action in relation to climate change.
Their work makes clear that the changes to weather patterns, ecosystems, water levels and soil quality and beyond brought about by climate change are human made and that coordinated global action is required for humanity to address the challenges already appearing before us.
At the same time, communities around the world have begun to experience near incomprehensible challenges across whether and how they can access food, security, water, energy, politics and culture meaningfully to sustain themselves, as ultimately protected by the International Convention on Human Rights.
Join our online and in-person courses to learn more about this hugely important topic and what work can be done to safeguard the future of our planet.
